TURA: Two Meghalaya police officers, including a lady officer, from Garo Hills have been elevated to the Indian Police Service rank by the Government of India on Thursday.
Jerry Fiscer K Marak and Jubi G Momin belonging to the 1996 MPS batch have been appointed to the elite IPS rank from the Joint Assam and Meghalaya cadre.
Momin becomes the first Garo woman police officer to be promoted to the all India police service. She has served in the state battalions and as SP, Fire and Emergency Service.
She is currently holding the rank of Assistant Inspector general of Police- Administration, AIG (A).
Marak, a young officer, has built a formidable name in the department fighting militancy in Garo Hills.
He also holds the record for raiding the maximum number of militancy hideouts in the jungles of Garo Hills, seizing a record number of weapons, explosives and militants.
During his tenure as the SP of East Garo Hills, he came close to nabbing GNLA chief Sohan D Shira in several raids on his hideouts.
The militant leader was so irked with the repeated raids that he led a group of rebels into Williamnagar town during a winter festival event and opened fire on the ancestral home of the police officer to show his frustration.
He is currently the commanding officer of SF-10.
