Taking a firm stance against administrative apathy and professional misconduct, Aligarh Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) Neeraj Jadon on Saturday, October 24, 2026, dispatched two senior field personnel to the district police lines in two separate, high-visibility controversies. The disciplinary action directly targeted Inspector Sushil Kumar Yogi, the station house officer (SHO) of Chharra police station, for deliberately stalling and refusing to lodge a First Information Report (FIR) in a serious minor rape allegation. In a concurrent order, Town Outpost In-Charge Jitendra Kumar was removed from field posting and attached to police lines after unlawfully detaining a farmhouse caretaker linked to local ruling party MLA Ravindra Pal Singh during an automated teller machine (ATM) tampering probe and subsequently getting into an unruly altercation with the lawmaker.

Inaction on Minor Assault: Chharra SHO Punished for Defying Top Directives

The first disciplinary action exposed severe laxity at the police station level despite explicit orders from district police leadership:

The Gruesome Crime Allegation: The incident dates back to around August 15, when a teenage minor was allegedly sexually assaulted inside a residential property where the victim's mother worked as domestic help within the Chharra police circle.

Refusal to Entertain Complaint: Despite the mother approaching the Chharra police station immediately after the crime to lodge a formal statutory case, Inspector Sushil Kumar Yogi allegedly turned away the complainant without initiating basic preliminary inquiries or filing an FIR.

Defying SSP Office Directives: When the victim's mother petitioned the SSP office seeking redressal, specific administrative instructions were dispatched down to the Chharra police station to register the crime; however, the SHO continued to sit on the case.

Direct Intervention by SSP Neeraj Jadon: The distressed mother managed to secure a personal audience with SSP Neeraj Jadon on Thursday, narrating how the station staff refused to record the complaint; taking immediate cognisance of the willful dereliction of duty, the SSP summarily removed Inspector Sushil Kumar Yogi from active station charge and sent him to lines.

Unlawful Custody and Lawmaker Feud: Outpost In-Charge Removed Over Caretaker Detention

The second disciplinary order emerged from an ATM tampering investigation that triggered friction between the police outpost and a public representative:

Detention from BJP MLA's Property: Town Outpost In-Charge Jitendra Kumar was handling an active investigation regarding an ATM tampering racket when he rounded up and detained a private security watchman stationed at the rural farmhouse of BJP MLA Ravindra Pal Singh on Thursday morning.

Verbal Altercation Over Police Overreach: Upon learning of his caretaker's detention without substantive link or preliminary summons, the MLA contacted the outpost in-charge to question the arbitrary pickup, leading to an aggressive verbal confrontation between the sub-inspector and the legislator.

Formal Representation to SSP: The MLA escalated the incident directly to SSP Neeraj Jadon, raising serious objections to the officer's aggressive demeanor and alleging that the watchman had zero involvement with the financial tampering case under investigation.

Late-Night Action Against Outpost Head: Evaluating the complaint and finding the outpost officer's procedural conduct inappropriate, the district police chief issued orders late Thursday night, removing Jitendra Kumar from outpost command and transferring him to police lines pending an internal administrative inquiry.
