J&K Police denies Resignations by Policemen

ONI Bureau:  The Jammu and Kashmir Police on Friday denied reports of resignations by policemen in the aftermath of the abduction and killing of three policemen in Shopian district.

J&K DGP Dilbag Singh said that the videos uploaded on the social media showing special police officers (SPOs) claiming to have quit were motivated.

“Services of SPOs are reviewed from time to time and based on these reviews some SPOs are disengaged. The videos uploaded on the social media are motivated,” he said.

“There have been no resignations by policemen after the killings of three SPOs by the terrorists,” Singh said.

But the Jammu and Kashmir Police has issued an advisory to all policemen on leave in south Kashmir to report for duty immediately.

The advisory also directs policemen not to visit their homes till further orders. (IANS)
