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General of Police has assured top CRPF officers that the "case registered against CRPF CoBRA commando is likely to be withdrawn by the state authorities".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also states that "they assured that the criminal case registered against constable of 207 CoBRA BN is likely to be withdrawn by the state authority."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.

Instead of complaining they should check the VEDAS first and follow how vedas says to worship . That is the core scripture of hinduism, people are diverted from decades from the scriptures and mindwashed to follow the cheddis version of hinduism which is against Vedas of worshiping one god without the image or idols.
Police, you are right....May be ----Some miscreants have used a Muslim name to disrupt peace like Bhatkal Meat / Nagabana case......Who ever may have done this mischief, his both hands should be cut .....
CD please don't twist the facts. His name is \Jabbar Kudroli\"."
NA TASYA PRATIMA ASTI... It means telling the TRUTH that there is no image of God and the people should stop worshiping the man made objects instead Search for TRUE GOD , who created U ME and all that exists... Did U ever questioned Y vedas asks not to worship Idols...... Please read and understand what is TRUTH and What will happen if U worship the man made objects...
