Orissa IPS officer booked for torturing wife; faces serious allegations of accepting Rs 40 lakh in cash as dowry

IN YET another case of an Orissa cadre bureaucrat turning a newsmaker for wrong reasons, a criminal case was registered against Nayagarh district’s Superintendent of Police Jaynarayan Pankaj after his wife Mrinal Agarwal had alleged that she was physically and mentally tortured by her husband, according to media reports quoting sub-divisional police officer G C Mallick. In fact, Mr Pankaj, a 2005 batch IPS officer and the current SP of Nayagarh, has faced another serious allegation as his wife alleged that her parents gave Rs 40 lakh cash as dowry during their marriage about two years ago. The investigation has begun after the case was registered under various sections of Indian Penal Code, including under dowry prevention act. The case involving an Orissa civil servant has surfaced barely a week after Jagada Nanda Panda, a 1983 batch IAS of Orissa cadre, allegedly killed his family members and himself in Bargarh district of Orissa after a CBI team had raided in his house. Read, “Who is IAS Jagada Nanda Panda?” posted on August 1, 2009. Orissa media has published the names of a number of bureaucrats from the state who have become newsmakers, all for wrong reasons. A very senior IPS officer came into news recently after he was allegedly spotted with a Bengali speaking lady at a government-run guest house in Cuttack. The names of two other very senior IPS officers were also dragged by local media reports for wrong reasons.
