Taking serious note of this “unprofessional” action, which is unbecoming of members of disciplined organisation, an enquiry has been ordered and same has been entrusted to SDPO City North, Jammu, who will enquire into the matter and submit his findings within a week’s time positively.
Jammu Police firmly believes in upholding rule of law and at the same time any non-professional tendency or approach on part any official will not be encouraged and desired departmental/legal action will be taken against such delinquent members, said the SSP.
Earlier during the day, the suspected thief was caught by people in the Bakshi Nagar area of the city after he allegedly robbed Rs. 40,000 from a person.
