Director-General of Police C. Sylendra Babu has written to police officers across the State to deal with compassion the leave requests of the rank and file.
Expressing displeasure over a Special Sub-Inspector serving in Sivaganga being denied of leave for the engagement of his daughter and sent to Coimbatore for security duty, Mr. Babu said: “His (the SSIs) repeated requests made to station writer and inspector of police fell on deaf ears.”
After information about the SSI not being able to attend at pre-fixed function spread, the DGP wrote to Commissioners/Superintendents of Police of all cities/districts saying the action of denial of leave by supervisory officer to a subordinate officer for such an auspicious function had to be viewed with great displeasure.
