NEW DELHI: After finding that cops have been easily getting away for their faults with just a warning or a censure, Delhi Police has asked senior officers to properly scrutinise the nature of punishments.
It was observed that punishments awarded to police officers for inadequacies in probing cases and non-appearance in court in bail matters were lenient. “All disciplinary and appellate officers must ensure that disciplinary action is commensurate with the misconduct. Non-appearance in court can have different results, like the accused being released on bail,” police said.
