Gurgaon smartphone snatcher’s father hits out, says my son framed to ‘make some sort of history’

Vicky’s father also claimed his son earned nearly Rs 20,000 a month and would not have indulged in such a crime.

Vicky Kalonia’s father has accused Gurgaon police of framing his son “to make some sort of history” even when the complainant in the case turned hostile. “The section my son has been charged under has an ‘A’ now. What does it mean? We do not know. We just know that our son is innocent and has been framed by the police,” said Manoj Kalonia, who works as a labourer in Najafgarh area.

He believes his “brightest child” is innocent.

“My son worked in a courier company at an executive level. On holidays too, he always stayed home and did not have any bad habits. He is the brightest all of my four children. He is a college dropout, but did a degree course in graphic designing.” Manoj, however, said he would not know what kind of company his son kept at work. “It has been three months since his arrest and we have only met two or three times. They kept moving him in and out of Bhondsi Jail,” said Manoj.

Vicky’s father also claimed his son earned nearly Rs 20,000 a month and would not have indulged in such a crime.

“There was another man with him when the two were arrested. Why did the police let him go? If the mobile was found in their possession, why is my son only targeted?”

Gurgaon police sources said the night Vicky was arrested, he was riding a stolen motorcycle. He was booked for that as well. Vicky’s family is planning to move a bail application in Gurgaon court.
