Mansa The driver of a Deputy Superintendent of Police has been arrested in Mansa after registration of a case of criminal breach of trust (Section 409 of the IPC) against him at the city police station on December 30. The driver, Jagsir Singh, was booked for the said offence after the service pistol of DSP (D) Hatinder Ghai went “missing”. Ghai, who is a complainant in the case, alleged that the pistol went missing after he (DSP) handed over his pistol to Jagsir while leaving for an eating joint to have food.

“I went for food and handed my service pistol to Jagsir. When I came back, he (driver Jagsir) was missing along with the Gypsy. Later, the Gypsy, which appeared to have met with an accident, was found abandoned. He (Jagsir) may have consumed liquor and is likely to have lost the pistol after that,” said Ghai.

Jagsir, who was arrested last evening, was produced in a Mansa court today and sent in police remand till January 5. However, according to a senior police official, who did not wish to be named, it was a case of “serious negligence on part of the DSP, who was supposed to take care of his service weapon”, adding that “the DSP strongly qualifies for departmental action against him”. Mansa SSP Manminder Singh said Jagsir’s investigation was on.
