Acting on a complaint by citizens from Kalina, commissioner of police (CP) Arup Patnaik, has taken serious note of the lapses by the investigating officer in registering a compelling case against an alleged serial child molester. 36 days after the case was registered at Vakola police station, the CP yesterday suspended investigating officer (IO) Sandeep Dhable for a shoddy probe, and passed an order to extern the accused from the city.

Not welcome here: Raju Jadhav was asked to leave the city immediately after Kalina residents were living in dread of the serial child molester. File Pic
