Cop's son, a known rowdy, molests two women in east Delhi, tears their clothes His job is to enforce the writ of the law but it seems that he failed to perform his duty when it came to his own <table style="width: 114px; height: 42px" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="114" align="right" border="1"> <tbody> <tr> <td><img alt="" src="/imagedata/2010/jul/Shakuntala.jpg" border="3" /></td></tr> <tr> <td> Picture of gloom: Poonam Pic/mid day</td></tr></tbody></table>son. Assistant Sub-Inspector RS Dhama's 24-year-old son Pammi has been a nuisance to the residents of New Ashok Nagar in east Delhi for several months. But on Sunday night he was at his best, or rather worst. Pammi had never backed out of drunken brawls in the area or picking up fights with the locals and teasing the girls, thanks to the alleged immunity he enjoyed being the son of a senior police official who worked for the Deputy Commissioner of Police of the area. Sunday night was no different. Pammi was on a high. He came out of the house and started shouting. The locals, including Poonam and Shakuntala, came out of their houses to shut him up. But in his drunken stupor Dhama started abusing them and targeted the two women. Poonam had been allegedly targeted by Dhama earlier too when he passed lewd comments at her and threatened her. He hit his neighbour Munna Lal and then tore the clothes of Poonam and Shakuntala. "My father was out of station and I was alone with my sisters at home when the incident occurred. We all were very scared. Pammi tore my clothes in full public view," said Poonam, a class XII student. Shakuntala, a neighbour of Poonam, is also in a state of shock. The 40-year-old housewife was also injured when the drunkard went on a rampage after being confronted by the locals. "How could he just do it? I am much older to him. He hit me several times on my face. Things went really bad on Sunday night, otherwise I would not have gone out to confront him. But it's high time that some concrete action is taken to stop him otherwise such incidents would happen more frequently," said Shakuntala, whose clothes were also torn by Pammi. Another local alleged that Pammi's friends joined him later and created ruckus in the area. "They were three people carrying some sharp-edged weapon. We usually don't confront Pammi and his gang but on Sunday it went totally out of control," said Munna Lal, Shakuntala's husband, who had cut wounds on his torso. By the time police reached the spot, Pammi had already fled the scene. Defending her son, Pammi's mother claimed that he was actually having an argument with a friend, which the locals took otherwise. "My son is being framed. It's totally a rubbish story. We belong to a good family and many of our family members are in the police. We are all law-abiding citizens. Pammi is friends with Poonam's brother Bhim. He had an argument with Bhim, which is being blown out of proportions by Poonam's family," she alleged. However, Poonam refuted the claim saying her brother was not present when the incident occurred. The police are yet to register an FIR in the case. "We had received a complaint of a scuffle late onu00a0 Sunday night. We are looking into the matter," is all that a senior police official said when MiD DAY asked him about the steps being taken to rein in Pammi.
