ACCUSED SONAM DORJEE BHUTIA |
One
Sonam Dorjee Bhutia aged 36, resident of Pedong Topakhani was arrested on
Tuesday for duping people off their money. Bhutia used to demand money from the
general public by introducing himself either as an IB Official or as a Custom
Officer. He was arrested by the Police in the evening hours of Tuesday after a
complaint was filed against him by a lady, who was being forced by Bhutia to
hand over her Alto car. Accused Bhutia was then summoned to the Kalimpong Court
the next day after which he was sent under 5 days Police remand.
But
Bhutia managed to escape from the remand yesterday late night at around 1:40
am. 2 of the on duty Home Guards and 1 Constable started untying him when he
seeked permission to use the wash room. Taking advantage of the situation and
the midnight darkness, Bhutia then pushing the on duty personnel escaped
successfully.
Informing
about the above incident, the Darjeeling District Superintendent of Police
(SP), Kunal Agarwal said that the Department will also take actions on the
Constable under the Line OR for being irresponsible. Likewise, the Sub
Divisional ASP, Songmit Lepcha notified that a separate case has already been
registered against the now absconding accused Bhutia for breaking away from the
Police custody. The ASP lastly appealed the public to immediately inform the
Police if any of them come to know his whereabouts.
