Nabarangpur:
A local scribe was ill-treated
by the BSF personals in between
Ralegada-Sunki, on Friday. Condemning the inhuman attitude of the BSF personals
the district Odish Unions of Journalists (OUJ) body submitted memorandum to the
DIG of police SW, and IG BSF, Koraput
through the superintendent of police Sudhansu Sekhar Mishra, here on Monday.
In
the memorandum the body demanded proper investigation into the matter and take stringent
action against the BSF personals involved in the incident. They further
demanded to tender an unconditional apology for
their misbehaviour.
While scribe was
returning from Vishakapatnam the BSF persons detained the vehicle and asked the
documents. When they queried identity
the scribe show the Reporter card. Instantaneously one of the BSF official underrated
by slapping scolding down said what you are doing for the nation? Even though
the scribe repeatedly requested them to leave but surprisingly the BSF official
started shooting video in his mobile threatened to encounter and also
endangered to lodge a false case of NDPS by keeping Ganja in the vehicle.
By tendering apology
our media friend came from the clutch of errant BSP personals and the matter reported
before Superintendent of Police Koraput, on the same day.
It is not a single case
of the BSF personals in the name of checking routinely harassing the common
citizens, including patients those who are travelling to Vizag, alleged
President Susant Behera.
Among others Scribes
Laxmikanta Panda, Basant Rath, Siba Sankar Padhy, Gopal Nayak, Kabiraj Bissoiy, Saroj Patnaik, were present.
