New Delhi, Apr 29: Karnataka is likely to withdraw the case filed against a CRPF commando who was arrested by state police officials for alleged assault on them during COVID-19 lockdown duty in Belgaum, a charge contested by the paramilitary Central Reserve Police Force.
In a bid to diffuse the ongoing tussle between CRPF and Karnataka police, the official communication sent to CRPF headquarters on Tuesday, with the details of bail granted to CRPF jawan Sunil Sachin Sawant, stated that the issue was discussed with the DGP Karnataka and other senior state authorities with a request to withdraw the case.
According to official communication, Karnataka Director General of Police has assured top CRPF officers that the "case registered against CRPF CoBRA commando is likely to be withdrawn by the state authorities".
The communication also states that "they assured that the criminal case registered against constable of 207 CoBRA BN is likely to be withdrawn by the state authority."
A CRPF CoBRA commando was thrashed and dragged to police station barefoot by police on April 23 for allegedly violating lockdown norms and assaulting/deterring public servant from discharging his duty in Belgavi district of Karnataka. A case was also registered against him.
This is not the first time when the state is showing efforts to solve the matter amicably.
Karnataka culture and tourism minister CT Ravi had also tweeted on April 27 claiming that he had a word with two ministers including state deputy chief minister who 'confirmed that the issue will be resolved amicably'
"Unfortunate that this incident happened with a CRPF Commando and the police. I have spoken with Industries Minister @JagadishShettar and Transport Minister @LaxmanSavadi. Both have confirmed that the issue will be resolved amicably," CT Ravi had tweeted.
CRPF Additional Director General (ADG) Sanjay Arora had also written to DG showing his displeasure over the ill-treatment done by Karnataka police with CRPF jawan and had said that "Keeping in view the gravity of the incident and its impact on the relationship between the two police forces, I am desired by the Director-General CRPF to request you to kindly get the matter inquired and provide justice. We would be thankful if you could inform us of the outcome."
Arora, in his letter, had also said that Karnataka police should have informed the force before registering a case.
The CRPF CbBRA commando was on extended leave and cleaning his motorcycle in front of his house in Examba city when he was allegedly manhandled and ill-treated in front of his family members and paraded to the police station barefoot, where he was kept in chains and handcuff.
The commando was granted bail by a court on Tuesday in the matter.
Sunil Sachin Sawant has been involved in various anti-Naxals operations and is a part of the CRPF elite CoBRA force, which is famous for doing anti-Naxals operations and has eliminated hundreds of Naxals in the past few years.

Unfortunately good secular are being killed by the criminals like these. Such criminals are lucky for not being harrassed or touched by anybody. This is temporary situation.
The God is watching and relaxing him to do more sins. Slowly he will be caught and nobody can save him.. We have seen many criminals in the past with all attrocities beyond the bounds. Finally their day had come.
Nobody can dare to force any religions, what to follow and what not to follow. It is not the business of anybody. It is command what they are following from their God. If he wants he can do at his home even he can not force his people at the temple.
He is utter stupid, Politics is not controlled by any group or religion. It is the choice of democracy. The majority in the state is Hindus. But all are not stupids like him.
Though they are majority, they selected good government. Because of Northern states, BJP came to power, now all Hindus are fed-up of Modi's group.
their end is also very imminent. Modi's time has come to get Political Sanyasam.
