Mangaluru: Advocate Nithin Kuttar has submitted a formal complaint to the City Police Commissioner alleging that an Inspector at the Women’s Police Station misbehaved with him while he was handling a case.
According to the complaint, the incident took place on November 15 when the advocate visited the station on behalf of a client involved in a family dispute. He has alleged that Inspector Balakrishna spoke harshly to the client, demanded that the child’s gold ornaments be produced at the station immediately, and threatened to register a case and send the client to jail if they failed to do so.
The advocate has also stated that the Inspector insulted him, addressed him disrespectfully, and warned him not to “bring any activism here”, allegedly saying he would “thrash him” if he did. Even when the advocate said he would approach the Commissioner, the Inspector reportedly continued in the same manner.
The complaint was submitted in the presence of an All India Lawyers’ Union delegation. Senior advocate Ramachandra Babbukatte and members Sunanda Konchadi, Manoj Vamanjoor, Charan Shetty and Haseenar Gurupur were present.

BJP using women's quota bill as front to pass Delimitation Bill that will break India: Mamata
Cooch Behar (WB) (PTI): Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Friday alleged the BJP-led NDA government at the Centre was using the proposed amendment to the women's quota law in Parliament as a front for the Delimitation Bill that would "break the country into pieces".
The TMC will fight this Central government's move at every step, she asserted at her party's poll rally here.
The Constitution (131st Amendment) Bill to tweak the women's quota law, along with the Delimitation Bill and the Union Territories Laws (Amendment) Bill, to implement the proposed amended women's quota law, in the Union territories of Delhi, Puducherry and Jammu and Kashmir, were introduced in the Lok Sabha on Thursday.
According to the Constitution amendment bill, Lok Sabha seats will be increased to a maximum of 850 from the current 543 to "operationalise" the women's reservation law before the 2029 parliamentary polls, following a delimitation exercise based on the 2011 Census.
Seats will also be increased in state and Union territory assemblies to accommodate 33 per cent reservation for women.
Opposing the Centre's move, Banerjee alleged that "the BJP brought the Delimitation Bill while keeping the women's reservation bill at the front".
"The BJP is trying to increase the number of seats in the Lok Sabha to nearly 850 through the Delimitation Bill. It will break the country into pieces," the TMC supremo said.
She also alleged that Prime Minister Narendra Modi was not speaking the truth about the development of north Bengal at a BJP rally last week.
"The prime minister said nothing was done for the development of north Bengal. But we spent Rs 1.72 lakh crore on the development of the region," Banerjee said and asked Modi to cross-check data before making such remarks.
