AGARTALA, June 28 (TIWN): With a major jolt for the criminal section of ruling BJP, now High Court has slammed Tripura Police for not doing proper investigation in cases filed against BJP MLA Ram Prasad Pal even after having “attempt of murder” charges against the MLA. According to report, Tripura High Court has directed Tripura Police for taking proper and neutral action against MLA Ram Prasad Pal and few more BJP activists against whom cases were registered after Lok Sabha Election clashes, on the very day of May 23rd, but never investigated. On the day of Lok Sabha Election result, a massive clash occurred between BJP’s two groups, even firing was alleged, in Amtali Siddhi Asram area. In this incident many were injured but even though police started investigation against other people involved in the violence but no action was taken against the MLA and his people. A petition was filed against police’s biased moves and in the hearing Court has ordered SP and Amtali PS OC to immediately start investigation against the MLA and other accused persons. The next hearing is on July 3rd.

It can be recalled that MLA Ram Prasad Pal emerged as a goon, even after having a constitutional post and various times on camera during elections he threatened many police officers.

TIWN in the last week has reported, how BJP MLA Ram Prasad Pal had hit controversy after he forced a man to sit up by catching ears and his workers beaten him in his office.

Then the MLA created another serious controversy and FIR has been lodged against Ram Prasad Pal for assaulting a housewife and beaten her husband. The victim family is also BJP supporting family and members of the party. The case no in Amtali PS : 2019 AMT 069, U/S-326/ 307/ 354 (B)/ 506/ 34 A IPC. According to the complainer, on 23rd May (Election result out day) Ramprasad Pal beaten one Ajit Nama’s with his mafia-circle at Siddhi Asram market. They attacked Ajit Nama with sharp knife. When he was beaten in an open market, public rushed to the spot and his wife attempted to save him but the miscreants assaulted her and then beaten her. However, even after the FIR no action has been taken by Amtali police although strong charges have been imposed against the MLA and the attack took place in an open market.

With all these, loopholes of investigation, High Court has warned Tripura Police to take neutral action immediately, proving nobody is above the law.
