KSU assault of cops

SHILLONG: It’s almost 10 days since the officer-in-charge and a head constable of Umiam Police Station were allegedly assaulted by Khasi Students’ Union (KSU) members, but till date the district police are yet to make any arrest.
Officials from the DGP office informed that the main accused Ferdynald Kharkamni, who is also the KSU president of Ri Bhoi unit, is absconding and attempts are being made to arrest him.
The incident happened on October 15 when Kharkamni led a group of boys into Umiam police station and slapped the officer-in-charge, sub-inspector L. Syngkhon, besides assaulting the head constable. Both of them were in uniform when the attack took place.
As per the police, the group entered the police station demanding the release of a boy who was picked up by them after he allegedly assaulted one Amir Ali, a pickup van driver from Barbhag in Barpeta district of Assam, in Sumer village in Ri Bhoi.
As per the FIR filed by head constable, B Bordoloi, the KSU leader threw punches on his face.
Meanwhile, police sources claimed that the incident has dealt a big bow to the morale of the force in Ri Bhoi and more stringent steps are required to arrest the accused.
