Bangalore: Home Minister’s Son Breaks Law, Assaults Police


Daijiworld Media Network – Bangalore (SP)

Bangalore, May 23: A Ajay, son of state home minister, R Ashok, reportedly manhandled a traffic police sub-inspector who was trying to enforce law, on the evening   of Saturday May 21. The incident occurred at Haines Road junction in Frazer Town here.

The police said that a car in which Ajay and his four friends were travelling, hit a motor bike at the said junction. As soon as the bike rider fell down, the occupants of the car assaulted him, accusing him of careless driving. The people, who were watching the developments, stopped the gang of youth from assaulting the bike rider. When traffic police sub-inspector, Gopalakrishna, rushed there to sort out the issue, the people there demanded action against those in the car.

Ajay, angered by the demand of the sub-inspector to accompany the latter to Shivajinagar police station, hit him and pushed him around. He then told the police that he was the son of the home minister, and warned the police of adverse consequences. At that time, a police vehicle arrived, and took the youth to the police station, it is learnt.

Sources said that the police, apparently under pressure from certain quarters, released the youth and his friends without any action. City police commissioner, Jyotiprakash Mirji, dismissed the incident as minor one, although he acknowledged that home minister’s son was involved with the incident. He hastened to add that no policemen were hit in the incident.

    Mr Diwakar and Mr Peter, It's not just the BJP culture! Remember when a certain Mr H.D Kumaraswamy's son indulged in worse shenanigans than that by beating up waiters at a famous Bangalore restaurant. So please try to maintain a more objective opinion and not stereotype!

    Minister's son can get away scot free. Shame on Mirji to treat the offence as minor. Would Mirji have treated it casually if the offender was anyone else !!!

    We all know that in India law applies only for the mango man (aam admi). For the same mango man justice never prevails. The rich and the mighty can get away with anything. Examples are so many that Daiji may run out of charecters on the portal.
    In India the State Police Chief is the DGP.
    In Autralis the State Police Chief is the Commissioner.
    A few days back the son of the WA Police Commissioner Carl O'Callahan's son Russel O'Callanhan was accused to be involved in an illegal drug manufacturing lab. ASAP the commissioner handed over the case to a special independent officer and in 2 weeks the accused was proved guilty and was sentenced.
    The media here treated Russel as an indivisual and did not go after the Commisioner's life. Would this have ever happended in India???
    He would have got covered and got away easily which is an evident proof with the said incident.
    Commissioner Jyothiprakash - Today that boy has slaped your inspector, tomorrow he will slap you, then you will realise.
    If your officers are right, you need to back them Mr. Mirji come what may. Don't bother about the HM.

    BECAUSE OF THIS FATHER - BEING A HOME MINISTER, HE MIGHT HAVE THOUGHT NOBODY WILL BE TOUCHING HIM BECAUSE HE GOT POWER IN THE POLICE FORCE. IF IT WAS A NORMAL CITIZEN , WHAT WOULD BE THEIR FATE? IN OUR KARNATAKA - THE MODEL RAMARAJYA - ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF POWER.
