The Interrogation of IPS Officer Sunil Naik
Right now, a police officer named Sunil Naik is being questioned for several days in a case involving the torture of Deputy Speaker Raghuramaraju. He’s an IPS officer from Bihar, and a special team led by Vizianagaram SP Damodar is handling the investigation. This is happening because the Supreme Court ordered it, and recently, the hearing got extended by three more days.
Why Is This Investigation Taking So Long?
Some people watching this case think the police are dragging it out to get back at Sunil Naik. They believe it’s revenge because he embarrassed them in Bihar earlier. There were reports that when officers from Andhra Pradesh arrested Sunil Naik in Patna, the local guards acted tough and even cursed a female official. This has led to doubts about whether the current long interrogation is really about finding the truth or settling scores.
Comparing How Different Officers Are Treated
In the same case, another senior officer, PV Sunil Kumar, was only questioned for four hours. But Sunil Naik has faced days of questioning. Observers say this shows the AP police might be obsessed with making him cooperate, possibly because he didn’t help them before. It seems like they’re using the investigation to pressure him.
What Happened During the Arrest?
When the AP Police arrested Sunil Naik in Bihar, things got messy. Instead of moving him properly with a transit warrant, they stopped him from going to Andhra Pradesh. There were even attempts to file counter-complaints against the AP police and an attack was tried. Because of this, the local court had to step in and let the police interrogate Sunil Naik.
Court Orders and Daily Interrogations
Since March 5th, Sunil Naik has been going to the CCS Guntur police station every day from 10 AM to 5 PM for questioning. At first, the court allowed this until March 9th. But after saying he wasn’t cooperating, the court added three more days, so it now goes until March 12th. The police are serious about his lack of cooperation from Bihar, which is why they’re making him come in daily.
What’s Next for Sunil Naik?
The Supreme Court is expected to decide on Sunil Naik’s bail plea soon. Some legal experts think the police are trying to arrest him no matter what, which is why they’re stretching the trial. After the Supreme Court’s order on March 12th, things might change. If the court grants bail, the investigation could wrap up faster. But for now, the daily interrogations continue, keeping everyone guessing about the real reasons behind this prolonged process.
