Case No.11939/24/73/2010
The Commission received a complaint dated 1.4.2010 from Shri Nand
Lal Shukla, President, Manavadhikar Emergency Helpline Association, Sant
Ravidas Nagar, Bhadohi, Uttar Pradesh and a human rights defender, alleging
that the then Addl. Supdt. of Police, Sant Ravidas Nagar, Uttar Pradeshy Ms.
Ruchita Choudhary called him and asked him to withdraw his statement in a
complaint case no. 224/24/73/09-10 earlier submitted by him before the
Commission pertaining to one victim Vinod Kumar Dixit. He further alleged that
when he showed reluctance, the Addl. Supdt. of Police, Sant Ravidas Nagar
threatened him and stated that the investigation is being done against him and
after lodging FIR, his limbs will be broken. In the light of the apprehension of
false implication and threat to life, a prayer was made before the Commission for
intervention and justice.
On perusal of reports submitted by authorities, the Commission inferred
that Sh. Nand Lal Shukla was intimidated and harassed by the Additional
Superintendent of Police (Intelligence), Ms Ruchita Chaudhary on the pretext of
a pseudonymous complaint because he exposed police malpractices. The
Commission issued show cause notice as to why monetary relief may not be
provided to the victim and also directed the Chief Secretary to initiate punitive
action against Ms Ruchita Chaudhary.
In response to the Show Cause notice, the Secretary (Home), HR Dept,
UP, submitted that there was no justification for grant of monetary relief to the
victim. Sh. Nand Lal Shukla further prayed for an independent investigation and
justice.
The Commission has directed Gyaneshwar Tiwari, SP, Banda and Ms
Ruchita Chaudhary, Additional Superintendent of Police (Intelligence) to appear
