UP: Cop registers complaint against himself for failing to prevent cow smuggling

In a bizarre incident, Meerut station house officer (SHO) has filed a complaint against himself and others for failing to prevent cow smuggling in the area of his jurisdiction.

SHO, Rajendra Tyagi told ANI, that before taking charge of the Kharkoda police station, he framed a rule that action will be taken against erring officers.

"I had introduced a concept that cop will be responsible if action isn't taken against a crime. If there is any theft or murder in the area of a concerned beat constable, then the onus would be on that specific constable," Tyagi told ANI.

"Also, if this negligence is recorded for more than two times then action will be taken against him," he added.

Till date, the SHO has filed complaints against six police constables. He had also filed a lawsuit against 19 who were caught taking bribe.
