Delay in case hand-over affects CBI probe: A P Singh

GZB: CBI director A P Singh on Friday said that "considerable time lag in handing over cases to the CBI makes the agency's work to collect evidence difficult", while addressing a passing out parade of 15th batch of sub-inspector trainees at Ghaziabad.

The agency chief explained that collecting evidence at times could become tedious since the CBI is not first responder in many cases. "The CBI is not first responder and is usually given the task of investigating and prosecuting a case after a considerable lapse of time since the time offence was committed. It becomes not only difficult, but sometimes also impossible to collect evidence. Therefore, only a scientific recourse to investigation will take it to its logical conclusion," Singh said.

He advised the new recruits that they need to constantly upgrade their skills and knowledge of legal procedures, laws of the land and scientific aids to investigation. "Advanced training allows police officers to better serve the communities they work in, and to retain their edge as law enforcement professionals. This also keeps you abreast with the latest scientific tools to be used in investigation. An investigation done with scientific methodology can yield far better results and solve intricacies of crime," Singh said.

He also presented awards to meritorious cadets on the occasion. Vijay Kumar Singh bagged the best cadet, while Parveen (shooting), Rajan Chaudhary (sports), Ranu Chaudhary (indoor and law), Udai Singh Gurjar (outdoor) and Vivek Chaudhary (cyber crime) were honoured for other categories.

GDA, builders unite to decongest Raj Nagar Extension

GHAZIABAD: Builders in  Raj Nagar Extension  and the Ghaziabad Development Authority  (GDA) have joined hands to put an end to congestion woes in the area.
