The transfer of a female SI after her attempt to apprehend DMK cadres who bought additional liquor has sparked controversy.
On May 13, Sub Inspector of Police Malarvizhi of the Aththur Mayilankarai Police Station in the Salem district stopped a group of unidentified people on a motorcycle. Upon searching, SI found liquor bottles in the bike which are more than the allotted amount.
A local DMK representative arrived on the scene to help his associates who had been apprehended by the police. Later, DMK Aththur Union Secretary Chezhian called SI Malarvizhi and demanded that the accused be released without filing a case.
Under these circumstances, the SI Malarvizhi was transferred from Mayilankkarai to Attur Women’s Police Station. With teary eyes, SI Malarvizhi raised the issue to Aththur DSP. However, Malarvizhi had been told by Aththur DSP that the matter would be investigated impartially.
