CUNCOLIM: Police Inspector Tukaram Chavan of the Cuncolim Police Station was suspended by the Goa Police. The reason given was a “supervisory lapse.”
According to sources, Superintendent of Police (PHQ) Nelson Albuquerque’s decision to suspend the employee was based on a direction from Deputy Inspector General of Police Aslam Khan.
Although the precise cause of the PI’s suspension is unknown, administrative issues were mentioned by sources. The source stated, “It’s due to a supervisory failure in managing some administrative things.
AAP leader Sandesh Telekar has accused PI Chawan of corruption. He is the same officer that started the externment process against Telekar in 2020 while he was working as the PI in Canacona due to Telekar’s suspected involvement in five criminal crimes.
Two constables, Akash Naik and Ganpat Tilogi, who were momentarily affiliated to the Calangute PS, were reassigned by the department to Fatorda and Cuncolim PS, respectively, in a separate order.
This response to Manoj Singh’s charges that two police officers conspired with him and his former business partner to participate in criminal activities along the coastal belt, including operating illegal gambling enterprises and threatening him and his family, has major repercussions.
