TURA: The Garo Students’ Union (GSU), Northern Zone, has taken a decision to strongly oppose the appointment of controversial police officer TC Chako as the Sub-Divisional Police Officer (SDPO) of Resubelpara in East Garo Hills.
The student body held an emergent meeting to discuss the State Government’s recent proposal to promote Circle Inspector Chacko as the new SDPO of Resubelpara.
The union accused the officer of being responsible for the killing of a labourer in a fake encounter in Williamnagar during the early part of this year.
“Such a controversial officer in the department maintaining law and order will not be trustworthy. It is feared that the officer with such a controversial background will see the people, particularly the youth, with suspicious eyes and create fear psychosis thereby worsening the situation,” the GSU stated.
The student body has threatened not to allow the police officer to set foot in Resubelpara sub-division and warned that if the government insists on his posting it would lead to an agitation by the union.
