Police asked to give details on VIP security

Staff Reporter

Court directive to file details by Nov. 9

NEW DELHI: The Delhi High Court has directed the Delhi police to file an affidavit stating the number of VIPs to whom it is providing security as well as the number of police personnel it has deployed for each of them.

A Division Bench of the Court comprising Justice Vijender Jain and Justice Rekha Sharma directed the city police to file the details by November 9.

The Bench passed the direction during hearing of a public interest litigation filed by Rajeev Awasthi, a Delhi High Court lawyer, seeking among other things separation of law and order and investigation in the Delhi police.

Mr. Awasthi filed the petition in 1998 in the wake of a series of heinous crimes-- murders, robberies and bomb blasts -- when T. R. Kakkar was the Police Commissioner of Delhi.
