Cop held out suicide threat
Rajasthan additional director-general of police Indu Kumar Bhushan was forcibly sent back to Jaipur on Monday evening. During the question-answer session that followed, Mr Bhushan argued with Mr Narasimhan, stating that he lacked awareness about the RTI Act.
When the Governor’s ADC tried to persuade Mr Bhushan to desist, the latter started arguing with the ADC. This took place in front of about 40 IPS officials from across the country. Taking a serious view, academy director Aruna Bahuguna lodged a complaint with Rajasthan DGP Manoj Bhatt, stating that the academy was sending Mr Bhushan back.
When the Academy issued the relieving orders at about 4 pm, Mr Bhushan created a ruckus and threatened that he would slit his throat if the orders were not withdrawn. Finally, the academy authorities sent him back to Jaipur with the help of the Central Industrial Security Force personnel and local police at about 6 pm.
