Meanwhile, Sub-Divisional Police Officer, DySP Santosh Desai informed that after registering an FIR against the Lady PSI and the constables, the Maina-Curtorim police have initiated investigations into the case.
The police were forced to register FIR against the Lady PSI and the constables after city lawyers along with Prabhu’s son Ashish and relatives insisted on registering the FIR against the erring police officials. They pointed out that deceased Prabhu had categorically stated in his suicide note blaming the lady PSI and constables for his suicide since they had behaved rudely with him.
The police, on the other hand, have maintained that police team led by the lady PSI Anushka Parab had gone to Prabhu’s residence late in the evening in search of his lawyer son, against whom an FIR stands registered at the Margao police station for allegedly stalking a lady lawyer.
