Gandhinagar: The Gujarat government Saturday
served a chargesheet on senior police officer Rahul Sharma for
deposing in courts and commissions in the 2002 riots case without
permission, sources said.
The action comes within less than 24 hours of the state government
denying that it was taking punitive action against the Indian
Police Service officer.
Saying that he is yet to study the chargesheet, Sharma's lawyer
Mukul Sinha told reporters that his client will seek legal
recourse.
The chargesheet was served on Sharma on the lines of the show
cause notice issued to him in February this year, sources said.
"False propaganda is being spread that the state government is
taking punitive action against Shri Sharma for his depositions in
the courts and commissions, which is far from the truth," said a
government statement issued Friday evening.
Earlier Friday, the Gujarat High Court rejected Sharma's petition
against the Narendra Modi government for allegedly stonewalling on
providing information which he needed to answer the show-cause
notice, on the ground that it was out of its territorial
jurisdiction.
