As the state government has started a legal process to declare former Mumbai police commissioner Param Bir Singh absconding, the Home Department has asked the relevant authorities to stop his salary. This step will expedite the process, as Singh, who is facing serious criminal charges, hasn’t appeared before the investigating agencies and a state-appointed inquiry commission even after several summons.
In March this year, Singh was transferred to the Home Guards department as its director general following a controversy related to the Antilia bomb scare case and arrest of former cop Sachin Waze. He later levelled serious allegations against then home minister Anil Deshmukh. Cases pertaining to extortion charges have been filed against Singh in Mumbai, Thane and other cities. Later he proceeded on leave and hasn’t resumed duty. “Since he hasn’t submitted a medical certificate or any other document seeking leave beyond the period he had applied for, the salary payment can be stopped,” said a source.
