Improve working to curb crimes: HC to police on Dec 16 plea
New Delhi, Sept 12: With all eyes riveted on the court which will decide the fate of the four Dec 16 gangrape convicts, Delhi High Court on Thursday voiced concern over rising crimes in the city despite its instructions in the wake of the 'brutal' incident, and asked the police to pull up its socks.
"Despite several directions of this court earlier while taking suo motu cognisance on the December 16 brutal gangrape case, the incidents are taking place. Implementation of such directions is the real issue and you (police) need to improve the working mechanism," the bench headed by Chief Justice N V Ramana said.
"Implementation of court order is the real issue...," the bench also comprising Justice Pradeep Nandrajog said and asked Special Public Prosecutor Dayan Krishnan to furnish details about the number of vacant positions in the police force. It asked Delhi police to file an affidavit disclosing the number of vacancies of Assistant Sub-Inspector (ASI), Sub-Inspectors and Inspectors including the number of women personnel.
"The affidavit will also disclose allocation of their duties in various police stations," the court said. The court also asked the Centre and Delhi Government to file affidavits disclosing the number of forensic laboratories in the city and the time taken by them in sending report in each case.
