Patna: A case was
filed in a Bihar court against 10 people, including Araria
Superintendent of Police Garima Mallik, in connection with the
police firing in which four people were killed and over a dozen
injured, an official said Saturday.
Four people, including a pregnant woman and a six-month-old
infant, were killed and nine others were injured June 3 at
Bhajanpura village near Forbesganj in Araria, about 350 km from
here, when the villagers were protesting against an upcoming
factory.
Mohd Farooq Ansari, a resident of Bhajanpura, has filed a case
against the Araria police chief in the court of the chief judicial
magistrate.
"Ansari has made Garima Mallik a named accused in the police
firing case," a district official said.
Ansari's wife was one of four people killed in the police firing,
the official said.
"After the Bihar government led by Chief Minister Nitish Kumar
failed to take any action against Mallik and other police
officials for the firing, I filed a case against her," Ansari
said.
According to a report on the police firing by the Delhi-based Act
Now for Harmony and Democracy, many eyewitnesses said the firing
order was given by Mallik.
