Keralam police inspector suspended over woman’s allegation of promise to marry
T.K. Vinod Krishna was suspended based on a report submitted by the Pathanamthitta District Police Chief to the Inspector General of Police, who issued the suspension order, they said
A police inspector in Kerala, T.K. Vinod Krishna, has been suspended following allegations that he promised to marry a woman and then impregnated her, according to officials. The incident came to light after the 28-year-old woman reported the matter to the District Police Chief. Krishna, who served as an Inspector at the District Crime Records Bureau in Pathanamthitta, had previously been the Station House Officer at Elavumthitta police station.
He was transferred to Peroorkada police station in Thiruvananthapuram district for preparations related to the Assembly elections. The inquiry found that Krishna had taken the woman with him when he traveled to Hyderabad for a case investigation. He allegedly made the promise of marriage after separating from his first wife, but later reneged on the vow.
The woman has not filed a formal complaint with the police. The authorities are now seeking legal advice on whether they can proceed with registering a case independently.
