GNS JAMMU, Dec : Nagar Singh, alias Nago who is facing trial in Amandeep murder case and is presently lodged in Hira Nagar Sub Jail has filed a complaint in Court of Chief Judicial Magistrate Jammu against Basant Rath the then SSP Jammu, Mubassir Latifi then SP Kulgam, Abdul Rouf Lone SDPO Jammu West, Kamaljit Singh, SDPO Border Jammu and Hardeep Singh Gill retired Dy SP under Section 500/503 of RPC and Section 66-A of Information Technology Act 2000 for making video film during his custodial interrogation.
He has submitted in the complaint that in the month of November, 2009, the then SSP Jammu, Basant Rath and other police officers were in active Government service and posted at different places and during the course of investigations in the murder case of Amandeep Singh, DIG Jammu under his supervision constituted a Special Investigation Team (SIT) of which Mubassir Latifi then SP, Abdul Rouf Lone, Kamaljeet Singh and Hardeep Singh Gill were designated as its members.
In the complaint Nagar Singh also stated that Kamaljeet Singh DySP was a close relative of late Amandeep Singh and complainant's name was falsely implicated in murder case by SIT.
Singh in his complaint said that after his surrender in the murder case he was jointly subjected to custodial interrogation by these officers in one of the rooms of Police Station Gandhi Nagar, here and the manner in which he was interrogated was not only denigrating and insulting but the language used during the interrogation was vulgar, intimidating, abusive, uncivilized and unacceptable.
Singh also alleged that he was physically tortured by the police officers who even did not spare his daughter in-law and made intentional and will full vulgar remarks and imputations which were defamatory in character. "I was ill treated, tortured and harassed by the police officers to make me confess my involvement in certain other cases which were beyond my knowledge'' he added.
"This was done willfully by all the police officers knowingly that such false and concocted imputations were bound to harm my reputation'', he said.
In the complaint Nagar Singh further submitted that these police officers tried to publicly defame him and without his consent made a video film on him during the custodial interrogation. Barring the police personals there was no other person in that room where Singh was subjected to custodial interrogation. "The members of the SIT had willfully made a video-film on my custodial interrogation so that I could be publicly defamed by transmitting the said video film in the internet etc'', he added.
Nagar Singh also stated that these police officers later transmitted the video film either by means of computer resource or communication device, not only to a number of persons on their cell phones but transmitted the same through internet, to a worldwide public site namely "You Tube'' to which every person having internet facility has an access.
The complainant has himself viewed the video film on November 28 this year on cell phone of one of his friends at Jammu when he was brought to Court of Second Additional Session Judge, Jammu in a case State versus Jatinder Singh and others, he stated in the complaint before the CJM.
In the complaint Mr Singh has prayed that prosecution orders against these officers be issued on the proof of the charges, they be convicted and sentenced under law.
CJM Jammu, Jatinder Singh Jamwal, after hearing advocate R K Kotwal directed Superintendent Hira Nagar Jail to produce Nagar Singh on December 14 for recoding his statement.
