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.

Rain washes out Super Eights match between New Zealand and Pakistan
Pallekele (Sri Lanka) (PTI): New Zealand and Pakistan shared a point after incessant rain forced the abandonment of the opening T20 World Cup Group 2 Super Eights match here on Saturday.
Amid a slight drizzle, Pakistan won the toss and elected to bat first.
But the steady droplets soon transformed into relentless pouring, forcing the officials to call off the match without a ball being bowled.
Before the skies opened up, Pakistan made one change to their eleven, bringing in Fakhar Zaman in place of Khawaja Nafay.
New Zealand made three changes with skipper Mitchell Santner back after missing the last match against Canada due to a stomach issue and Lockie Ferguson and Ish Sodhi also found a place in the XI.
But all those calculations and combinations will have to wait for another day, as Pakistan will now face England here on February 24.
New Zealand will make a light travel to Colombo to face home side Sri Lanka on February 25.
The washout has also placed both the Kiwis and Pakistan in a relatively tighter place ahead of their remaining two Super Eights matches.
A similar result in any of the following matches, a possibility considering Sri Lanka’s weather pattern, or a defeat can put their semifinal ambitions in serious jeopardy.
