SIT officers will focus on other work

Team Udayavani, Oct 22, 2017, 12:48 PM IST

Bengaluru: The Government asked the SIT to report back to their original postings and parallelly monitor the Gauri Lankesh murder case.

At a meeting on October 19, Bengaluru Police Commissioner T Suneel Kumar reiterated that SIT officers must devote attention to cases at their respective police stations apart from investigating Lankesh’s murder.

The 21-member SIT led by Inspector General of Police B K Singh had started the investigation on September 6. A week later, 40 more senior police officers joined the team to fast-track the investigation. Thus, 61 senior officers along with lower-rung policemen have been working

“We have tasks other than investigating this (Gauri) case. We just have to supervise the investigation while our subordinates will go about the job,” a senior SIT officer said.
