Pune Traffic Police — Complain against ‘asi mr. Jja katukaran’

Address:

Pune, Maharashtra, 411015

I would like to bring to your kind notice a very unpleasant incident that has happened with me at Deccan College Signal on 28th nov. 2015. Firstly I would like to take the opportunity to appreciate the drive conducted by the traffic police just 200 m before the Deccan College Signal. Such routine checking helps us restore the faith in the system and judiciary. While the checking is necessary to catch the offenders, I fail to understand the need to have around 9 officers to do the job at the same spot just 200m away from the signal where CCTV is installed. During the checking I was found to have not carried my Licence, My bike papers and PUC and was also not wearing a helmet. I apologize for the grave mistake. I agreed that time that it was my mistake and was also ready to pay the fine but just because I was at fault does that give a right to the onduty officer ‘ASI Mr. JJA Katukaran’ to be rude to me, to snatch away my bike keys and to scare me with dire consequences if I questioned and in worst case scenario put me in Jail. I don’t think that my crime was so big that I could go to Jail. I quickly called up my daughter and asked her to get the required documents. While I was waiting patiently I observed That people riding the bullet bikes were not stopped in spite of they not wearing the helmet. Also a guy escaped the clutches by saying that he was from Arogya Vibhag. The inspector asked the officer to let him go. Why should there be such discrimination??? First the officer asked me to pay Rs.700 and then suddenly he said you can just pay Rs. 200 on being asked why so My fine was made Rs. 800 and on further questioning the officer asked me to pay Rs.900. I told him politely that I’m ready to pay the charges kindly explain me the sections along with the fine charged on this the officer asked me to directly go to the court and pay the charges. The Inspector present at the scene was not at all supportive, without knowing the exact story he started yelling at us and also gave us warning. It seems like to due the short tempered nature of ‘ASI Mr. JJA Katukaran’ I have been forced to go through the cumbersome process in order to get my license back in spite of the fact that I was ready to pay the whole amount in cash at the spot. I have been targeted because I asked ‘ASI Mr. JJA Katukaran’ to explain the charges levied on me. I believe a tax payer of this country atleast has the right to know what he is paying for. Sir I have the recordings in my support which will provide the evidence. I request you to kindly look into the matter at the earliest as such incidences shake our faith in the judiciary and give us a feeling that a person in power can walk over a common man. Kindly help me as my licence is still with ‘ASI Mr. JJA Katukaran’. Thank you.
