constable transferShivamogga: A police constable who was transferred out of his previous posting for allegedly having a close nexus with anti-social elements, has now shocked everyone with his comeback. The constable, who was caught partying with rowdy-sheeters in his quarters and was subsequently transferred by the former SP with the specific orders that the tainted constable should never be posted in Shivamogga again, has come back to the district, that too with a promotion in hand!

Constable Puneeth was attached to the Shivamogga traffic police (west) when the then SP Abhinav Khare personally raided his accommodation on credible information and found him partying with some rowdy-sheeters. On checking Puneeth’s call details, it was confirmed that he had close connections with anti-social elements. Close on the heels of this incident, Puneeth was transferred to Jog from Shivamogga and Khare had also recommended in the annual report that Puneeth should not be posted back to Shivamogga.

However, what has left everyone shocked is the fact that Puneeth is back in Shivamogga within six months of his punishment transfer. He has been re-appointed to the same traffic (west) branch, that too with a promotion!

It is said that some of the outstanding performers of the department have got promotions, but they have not been given the place of posting of their choice. It is now being said that Puneeth is shielded by his top officials, due to which he has had his way. Speaking to newskarnataka.com, Superintendent of Police Dr Ashwini said, “The transfer list has been transparent and there is nothing to be shocked about the postings, however, having said that, Puneeth’s annual report has specific mentions made by the former SP, which will be looked into.”
