The Commissioner’s statement came during a meeting with senior officials. The meeting, apart from the misconduct, also discussed the transfers of inspectors in the city, which Anand said was decided after several rounds of discussions.

The decision was to transfer SHOs in Law and Order, Traffic and a majority of the officers working in others wings in SB, CCS, Control Rooms and Detective Inspectors in police stations who have completed three years in their present posts.

As a matter of policy, it was decided to conduct a 360 degree SB enquiry into the personal life, reputation, integrity of all those inspectors picked to be SHOs of L&O police stations and for Task Force especially, and even for traffic police stations as SHOs, Anand said.

He asked police officials to be all-rounders in handling bandobusts, crimes, addressing visitors and to ensure that all officers under their charge follow discipline while discharging duties.
