Bengaluru: Bengaluru City Police have registered a complaint against Delhi Police for allegedly engaging in unlawful activities in the city. The complaint was lodged by the family of Nadeem Khan, National Secretary of the Association for Protection of Civil Rights (APCR), following an alleged attempt by Delhi Police to detain him without proper procedures.
The incident reportedly occurred on the evening of 30 November, when four officials claiming to be from the Shaheen Bagh Police Station in Delhi arrived at Khan's residence in Bengaluru. According to the complaint filed at the Sampigehalli Police Station, the officials attempted to detain Khan without a warrant or prior notice.
The complainant alleged that the officials intimidated them, citing an FIR registered against Khan at 12:48 PM on the same day. They showed an online copy of the FIR but failed to produce any other documentation. The officials, dressed in plain clothes, allegedly entered the house unlawfully and remained there for nearly five hours, pressuring Khan to accompany them to Delhi.
A statement from Khan's brother mentioned that local police officers from Sampigehalli also visited their residence later in the evening and clarified that they were unaware of Delhi Police's actions.
Advocate Niyaz, Karnataka State Secretary of APCR, criticised the Delhi Police's conduct, stating that they failed to follow Supreme Court guidelines regarding arrests. He alleged that the officials did not carry identification or inform local authorities, making their actions unlawful.
Khan's family has requested Sampigehalli Police to file an FIR against the Delhi Police officials for criminal trespass, intimidation, and misuse of power. They have also sought protection for the family to prevent further harassment.
