Look Who’s Talking: Punjab SSP
says police framing
his son in false case
WSN Bureau
 JALANDHAR:
For
decades now, people of
Punjab do not
believe anything that the Punjab Police says or claims. Now finally,
you have what Americans really would love to call "a situation." A
multi-millionaire son of an SSP (a very senior police rank) has been
caught by the police in a diamond robbery, and diamonds worth Rs 4
crore recovered from his house, but the SSP father says it is all a
big lie and the police was trying to frame his son.
So here you have
it. A police SSP says police is framing his son. The SSP himself is
accused by opposition leaders of trying to frame them as he is
leading many inquiries into former CM Amarinder Singh and others'
cases.
Shiv Kumar is an
IPS officer, currently Patiala Vigilance Bureau SSP. Police has
arrested his son Mohit Sharma, for allegedly robbing a Mumbai-based
diamond trader of precious stones last Thursday night. Jalandhar SSP
Pawan Kumar Rai has confirmed that police has arrested Mohit and his
security guard for their involvement in the loot of the diamonds
which were recovered from his residence. Mohit had helped
Mumbai-based diamond trader Vivesh Shah to hire a taxi fromLudhiana
for
Amritsar.
later, it was found that the taxi driver and others were the ones
who carried out the robbery.
Now, Shiv Kumar
has put question marks on the probe but Jalandhar SSP had a terse
comment to make: "He can ask for a CBI inquiry if he doubts our
inquiry." Shiv Kumar himself must have said this to hundreds of
innocent people complaining to him about the ham handed ways of the
police. Interestingly, Mohit seems to have been a victim of never
satiating greed. He was asuccessful businessman in the eyes of
diamond merchants of the city. Mohit was a jack of many trades. He
would start a profession and jump to another whatever he fancied. He
was a persuasive insurance agent and a model also.
After starting
his career as a model, he has worked with many big names in the
modelling industry like Sayed Zulfi of Big Boss fame, Mark Robinson
and Dino Moria. After trying his luck in modelling, he switched his
attention to the corporate world and became an insurance agent. He
did well, thanks to his family’s contacts. Finally, he tried his
hand in the diamond trade and owned a franchise of D’dmas diamonds.
