Maintaining that the insincere attitude of the investigating officer in the rape case of a five-year old girl resulted in release of the accused, who also tried to kill father of the rape survivor, on bail; the JAC formed against the incident has demanded suspension of the IO SI Rakesh.
Addressing a press meet at Manipur Press Club here on Friday, JAC convener Chongtham Jiban said that the accused from Rakesh tried to kill the girl's father and police arrested him along with three accomplices.
However, they were released on bail as the IO of the case SI Rakesh failed to perform his duty sincerely.
He demanded the authority concerned to suspend the IO and reinitiate investigation at the earliest.
