A court here today issued bailable warrants against the Jaipur police commissioner and two other senior officials for negligence in discharging duties.
Metropolitan Magistrate Rajeshwar Vishnoi summoned Jaipur Police Commissioner Sanjay Agrawal, Additional Police Commissioner Prafulla Kumar and Deputy Commissioner of Police Manish Agrawal on May 20 for not registering an FIR on a complaint by Sidhharth Maharia, who allegedly hit an autorickshaw and a police van killing three persons and inuring five while driving his BMW car last July.
Maharia, son of independent MLA Nandkishore Maharia, had alleged in the complaint to the court that he was beaten up by the police during detention.
When he lodged a complaint in this regard, the police did not register an FIR.
In his complaint, he had also claimed that the investigating officer had prepared a false report of seizure of the airbag of his car in order to conduct probe of the incident in an unfair manner.
