PORVORIM
Making a serious allegation that IPS officers are setting a wrong trend by giving political angle to the investigation of serious offences like murder, Independent Porvorim MLA Rohan Khaunte has demanded Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) probe into the murder of Vilas Methar at Porvorim.
Khaunte said that the trend of victimising people for political reasons is very dangerous. “Death of Vilas Methar is an ideal case which should be given to the CBI. Let the truth come out. The trend of political victimisation has been started by IPS officer will percolate to DySPs and PIs corrupting the entire system,” said Khaunte.
“Vilas Methar case is a unique example, it is a serious offence, action should be taken seriously. Such kind of incident has never happened in Goa the way it is happening in Bihar and UP,” he said.
“You cannot victimise somebody just because he is having political affiliations. This is exactly happening with SP, pleasing his masters, which is a government and the chief minister,” he said.
“The State government has been using police force to silence their opponents, who have been exposing all the illegal deeds in favour of the public,” alleged Khaunte.
Khaunte alleged that the activist who is holding candlelight march demanding justice in Vilas Methar case are just politicising the issue. “If some genuine activists and NGOs had to hold candlelight march, then I would have been standing with them,” said Khaunte. Porvorim is the only place where BJP and Congress have joined forces to attack local MLA on flimsy grounds, he added.
