Mumbai: Kirit Somaiya files complaint against cop at Khar police station

Speaking to reporters after filing the complaint, Somaiya said, “The Khar police station has lodged a complaint against a police officer who filed a fake FIR against me in Khar assault case.”

Somaiya also alleged that Shiv Sena workers had physically attacked him and wanted to kill him. “Police inaction against Sena workers is shocking. Therefore, I filed a complaint demanding FIR against sainiks for conspiring to kill me. It is a criminal conspiracy to protect Shiv Sena goondas who tried to kill me. In the FIR, we have demanded action under Sections 467, 465, 466, 471, 167, 217, 218, 120b of the IPC.”

The BJP leader has also served a legal notice to a senior inspector of police at Khar police station for allegedly illegal, manipulative and fake registration of FIR in his name. The notice said, “Somaiya has not signed any such FIR which is registered in his name, nor is he aware that such an FIR has been registered and uploaded. Since the client never signed the said FIR and the entire episode of uploading the FIR and taking action on it is illegal and unlawful.”

Speaking to the media on his way out, Somaiya said, ”I had not even signed that FIR on the basis of which the police registered the case. That FIR has incorrect facts. I want necessary facts to be added to the FIR. The Khar police made me sit for two hours in the police station and did not register an FIR. When they got a call from the Mumbai Police Commissioner, they tore the FIR which they were to register. I will be meeting the Maharashtra Governor at 12.30 pm on Wednesday to apprise him of the wrongdoings of the Mumbai Police.”
