Thiruvananthapuram: The State Human Rights Commission on Tuesday ordered an investigation into a police officer allegedly embarrassing a school teacher in front of his daughter.
Chairman of the Justice Commission Antony Dominic has ordered a probe that rejected the investigation report submitted by the City Police Commissioner who supported the officers.
The Commission has also ordered to review cases registered by the Museum Police against school teachers related to the incident.
The commission order opposed Riyaz Khan, Sub Inspector (class) of the Poojapura police station.
Jackson, a St.
School teacher Thomas, Pointhura, is the applicant.
According to the petition, the incident related to his complaint took place on April 22, 2021, in front of higher government high school for girls, while Jackson waited outside the school to pick up his daughter, who attended a higher secondary examination exam.
The applicant accused that Riyaz Khan and other civilian police officers served there as part of security protection for electronic voter machines stored in schools ahead of assembly elections.
Duo behaves harshly against some parents waiting outside of school.
Witnessing this, Jackson intervened and questioned their attitude.
But, the officer responded by abusing it verbally before his daughter.
The officers also called their colleagues from the Museum Police Station, who brought the teacher to the station and ordered it for blocking the officers to issue their assignments.
They also confiscated the registration certificate of his vehicle while taking him to detention.
Judge Antony Dominic adheres to his demands that the investigation must be carried out by a rank officer of the police deputy supervisor.
The Commission also argues that the mere fight does not amount to assignment obstruction and hence cases registered by the police museum must be reviewed.
