Sheer negligence
The killing of Amar Lama, former driver of the
late Madan Bhandari and Jib Raj Ashrit (CPN-UML leaders) clearly showed the incompetence
and negligence of the police force. The police have sufficient information in this casethe
taxis registration number, colour, make, model et al.
Once the information is passed on to the police
at 100, it is the responsibility of the police in charge of the telephone to act
immediately on it. It is irresponsible to say that this is not my area; call the other
numbers and so on.
The appropriate action should have been like
this: Those in charge of the calls should pass on the information by Motorola, for
instance, to all the police stationed in different places of the city. If this technique
were applied, it would have possible to nab the culprit within half an hour and could have
saved the life of Lama.
