Imphal, June 08 2009:
57 year old Ningthoujam Dhananjoy, Headmaster of Arong Khunou Awang Leikai Aided LP school was reportedly subjected to severe torture by Thoubal police commandos yesterday morning.
According to a representation submitted to the DGP by the victim, Dhananjoy was subjected to third degree torture for about one hour and a half at his own home at Arong Khunou Awang Leikai on the charge of sheltering three insurgents the previous night.
Asserting that the commandos' action amounted to violation of fundamental rights without any authority of law, that too in a very high-handed manner, Dhananjoy appealed to the DGP to look into the mater and take up appropriate punitive actions against the errant personnel of Thoubal District Police commando.
He also sought registration of a FIR case against the police commandos involved in physically assaulting him.
