Doubts raised over drug cases filed by tainted Goa cops Panaji, Mar 27 (PTI) With five former Anti-Narcotic Cell (ANC) policemen behind bars for their alleged links with drug mafia, the Russian consulate has raised doubts over the cases filed against two of their nationals by the cell in Goa.
In a March 11 communication to Inspector General of Police Sundari Nanda, the consulate has raised concerns about the duo languishing in jail, especially after Inspector Ashish Shirodkar, who booked them, is facing probe by Crime Branch. Shirodkar, earlier attached to ANC, and four other policemen were arrested last week for their alleged nexus with Israeli drug peddler Yaniv Benaim. "The samples of drugs confiscated from the accused are yet to be examined. We have also understood through media reports that the credibility of Investigating Officer has been doubtful," the letter, written by Consulate of Russian Federation in Mumbai, has said. http://www.ptinews.com/news/584049_Doubts-raised-over-drug-cases-filed-b y-tainted-Goa-cops ~(^^)~ Avelino
