Nikhil Wagle Recently Criticised Mumbai Police
Journalist Nikhil Wagle slammed the Mumbai police on January 26, alleging that he did not receive a copy of complaint after 48 hours of lodging a complaint. Terming the Mumbai police "worthless" on X (formerly Twitter), Nikhil Wagle said the Mahim police station is of no use. Reacting to his post, the official account of Mumbai police dismissed Wagle's allegations and advised him to use "appropriate" language.
"Mumbai police is worthless. It's been 48 hours and didn't get copy of complaint. The Mahim police station should be up for sale in junk market," Wagle posted in Marathi.
Mumbai Police Gives Befitting Reply
In response, the Mumbai police said: "We have collected all details. Based on your complaint, an offence has been registered on January 24. The same has been conveyed to you. You refused to meet police officials who came to your house to gather more information."
The police department further said that Wagle has been told to collect a copy of the complaint from the police station. It underlined: "There is no provision to deliver the complaint copy to the house of a particular person." Reacting to the language of Wagle's post, the Mumbai police said he should make "decent" choice of words as he is an "educated" person.
