CBI inspector, UT cop acquitted in rape case
Chandigarh, November 25 The court acquitted CBI Inspector Subhash Kundu and head constable Mahinder Singh of the UT Police, who was posted with the CBI on deputation. The two were booked for violating a 40-year-old Hisar resident. The case was registered against them under Sections 376 (rape) and 120-B (criminal conspiracy) of the Indian Penal Code at the police station-39 in June, 2007. A criminal case was registered against the woman and her husband, a bus driver, in Hisar in 1998. The rape victim and her husband were allegedly involved in a case being investigated by the police in which they were acquitted. The complainant, not satisfied with the police investigation, approached the Punjab and Haryana High Court, which finally handed over the probe to the CBI. According to the prosecution, Kundu along with Singh visited the woman’s house in 2004 as part of the investigation. Singh allegedly told her that Kundu wanted to meet her at the rest house, but she declined. Fearing arrest, the victim’s husband fled. The two officers then approached the woman and allegedly offered to go slow on the investigation in return for sexual favours. However, it was claimed that Kundu later threatened her to come to the rest house or he would distort her case. It was further added that when the woman reached the rest house, the two men, who were under the influence of liquor, confined her to a room and later raped her. In 2007, the victim had moved an application before the UT SSP alleging that Subhash Kundu and Mahinder Singh had raped her. An inquiry was marked to a DSP rank officer, who found them guilty and an FIR was registered on June 26, 2007. |

Coach, official engage in verbal duel

Chandigarh, November 25 The coach of Sacred Heart School, Sector 26, and an organising committee member were seen accusing one another of misbehaviour during the competition. The officials later submitted a complaint in writing to the authorities in UT education department against the coach. Earlier, the coach of Sacred Heart accused an official, sitting at the scorer’s table, of favoritism by allowing supporters of Government Model Senior Secondary School, Sector 21, to stand in the team’s box. “As per the rules, only team members, coach and manager can stand in team’s arena but supporters of the opponent team continued to disturb our players while standing in the team’s arena. When I objected to the violation in front of Satnam Kaur (the official), she pushed me and misbehaved with me,” alleged Kumar, coach of the team. “In spite of the misbehaviour, being a junior I went up to her for an apology, but she remained unrelenting,” he added. On the other hand, the official accused the coach of adopting a wrong method of raising the objection. “There is a way to object to a violation. You just cannot come and manhandled officials. Only parents were standing there and supporting their team. We were trying to control the situation but he was not ready to listen to us. He tried to take away papers from us. We (the organising committee) have filed a complaint against him to the authorities,” said Satnam Kaur.
