Click to play videoGwalior: It has been more than three weeks since Sub-Inspector Chetna Sharma's body was found with a bullet wound at her residence in Bhind.
On Friday, a distress letter she had allegedly written to the National Commission for Women was found.
In the letter, she claimed that the District Superintendent of Police Raja Babu Singh was sexually harassing her and had even threatened to kill her.
But the police say they are yet to receive this letter. Although the government is promising a fair investigation, the Crime Investigation Department (CID) is yet to register an FIR.
"There is an apex court ruling in which the police has to register a FIR under Section 154 of the IPC once there is a complaint in cognizable offense. In this case legal options should be explored," said advocate Aditya Vallabh Tripathi.
Chetna’s family and friends gather at her residence in Gwalior everyday to reaffirm their resolve to claim justice for her.
Social organisations have also come forward in support of the family.
They burnt Raja Babu Singh's effigy on Saturday. The family is suspecting foul play because of the slow pace of investigation.
“Where does the common man go if the police starts behaving like this? Justice for Chetna has to be delivered and if the CID does not register a case now we will have to explore other options,” said social activist Vasant Prashar.
Justice for Chetna’s family appears to be a far-fetched dream at the moment even as public anger appears to be rising with each passing day over the CID's indecisiveness.
