The police head has done excellent job of disciplineing police. such police men instead of catching criminals and terrorists have acted as hard core criminals. Such persons deserve capital punishment mercilessly. I am sure such criminal police men must had the support of criminal politicians. This may be a tip of the iceberg of Indian politics and administration. This is why criminals, traitors and terrorists are growing at an alsarming rate.

These methods might be used to get rid of secular and progressive communities of muxlim, Xtian, or SC/ST/OBC progressives from security forces under influence of right wing Hindus. Hence, the religion and caste of "disciplined" policemen and women must be immediately released and made newspaper headline to establish proper secularism in India.
This is really alarming figures for Police dept. How can we trust these guys if they themselves are criminals? How can a honest police officer trust his team members who participate in encounters? What is wrong if someone doubt that Inspector Mohan Chand Sharma was shot by his own men?
