Hyderabad: Expressing concern at the pile up of pending cases, the Detective Department’s Deputy Commissioner of Police Avinash Mohanty called for a revamp of the Central Crime Station’s style of functioning, starting with disposing of the 3,900 odd cases that he said, were being investigated at a snail’s pace.

In the recent transfers effected in the police department, Avinash Mohanty, who was the Traffic DCP in Cyberabad Commissionerate, was posted as Deputy Commissioner of the Detective Department in Hyderabad.

The Detective Department has 15 teams including eight teams that investigate sensational cases. Five White- Collar offences teams, five zonal teams, Automobile team, Anti- Dacoity and Robbery team, Anti Homicide team, SHE teams, Marketing Intelligence Wing, the Indian Fake Currency Notes team,

Anti-Homicide team, Cyber Crime team, Women police station and an Anti-Narcotics team have been constituted to deal with the cases. Most of the cases taken up by them are of frauds involving over Rs 30 lakh, robberies, dacoities, sensational cases of cheating and also fake visa and passport cases.

“Our primary responsibility is to investigate the cases in an expeditious manner. Yet some officers, have been negligent in discharging their responsibilities. Almost 2,800 cases registered in CCS are pending. Some cases have been registered as far back as 2008, and in hundreds of cases, the charge- sheets have not been filed yet. 1,100 cases registered at the Women’s police station are yet to be cleared and 500 of them are waiting for a Court Case (CC) number,” said DCP Mohanty.

Responding a query he said “A case may take six months at the maximum to be solved, it should not take six years. In most cases, the victims may not get back their material possessions, the least we can do is to bring the culprits to justice.”
