Planned, deliberate attack on my wife: RG Kar victim's dad

KOLKATA: Two days after the RG Kar victim 's mother was injured during a protest march to Bengal secretariat Nabanna, the father emailed a complaint to Kolkata police commissioner (CP) Manoj Verma on Tuesday alleging a "pre-planned" and "deliberate attack" on his wife by cops.

The father has claimed that cops targeted his wife in such a manner that "she could have been killed". The police, however, reiterated that they had examined footage but had not found any evidence yet to prove the allegations. They made a public appeal for any video or photograph that can corroborate the allegations.

The father accused Kolkata police of subjecting him to "extreme harassment" over where to lodge the FIR despite provision for a Zero FIR , which allows any police station to register a case and forward it to the appropriate jurisdiction. Frustrated, he mailed the complaint to CP Verma. "Inquiry is on. If the allegation has any truth, an FIR will follow. I am not saying the final word, but no police action around her is visible anywhere," said joint CP (headquarters) Meeraj Khalid.
