Police records claim 358 such men have to be tracked down, says R. Ilangovan
Salem Ranges new Deputy Inspector General (DIG) of Police N. Chenbaharaman has assigned a tough task to his deputies in the districts of Salem, Namakkal, Dharmapuri and Krishnagiri - track down the bail jumpers who remain at large for long. The DIG has specifically told this to the Superintendents of Police (SP) at a meeting on Thursday that these elusive criminals need to be brought before the law as early as possible before they commit another crime. Police records in these districts claim that 358 such men against whom warrants are pending for long have to be tracked down. Many of them, the police say are accused in cases such as murders and robberies and a few of them are hardcore criminals. Some of them in the total are small time offenders. But what the DIG had told his officers was not to be complacent while dealing with the issue concerning with the pending warrant. He also studied the cases that were pending before various courts in these districts and the cases that have been completed. These details also would provide a clear picture on the exact status of the ratio of crime detection and conviction in the range, said a police officer. Illicit liquor was another menace that has to be sternly dealt with. The officers have been asked to launch intense raids against the illicit brewing. Those who dare to continue their illegal activities should be booked under the Goondas Act. “Such stringent action alone could contain the illicit flow which has started surfacing in pockets in the districts,” the officer said. The Range police also have decided to pep up its surveillance in areas suspected to be prone to naxal movements. Five special squads apart from the Special Task Force battalions would be pressed into action against the radicals in the forests of Dharmapuri and Krishnagiri districts. Each unit would be manned by an officer and 30 police personnel. Their primary objective was to effectively monitor the Tamil Nadu areas abetting the borders of Andhra Pradesh and Karnataka in these two districts.
