Mumbai: A 33-year-old Kalachowkie resident who sent over 200 emails to
police demanding action against a woman constable for allegedly verbally
abusing him two years ago, has been booked for outraging the modesty of
woman as his latest mails contained vulgar words.
Sachin Chefalkar, who lives opposite Kalachowkie
police station, had first sent an email to the police station in 2016
alleging that a woman constable had abused him when he was standing in
his fourth floor home balcony. According to sources, when a police team
went to meet him, he, however, did not give them further details and
instead asked them to refer his email.
He subsequently started sending emails to the
police station, the deputy commissioner, the additional commissioner’s
office and the city police commissioner. “He would forward the same
email with some fresh addition,” said a police source.
Meanwhile, he allegedly abused a policeman some
time ago and a non-cognisable complaint was lodged at Kalachowkie police
station. The investigators approached the court seeking permission to
investigate the complaint. “When we went to his house, he did even not
allow his father to speak to us. He just told us that we should go back
and check his complaint and take action,” added an officer. A police
source said they were fed up with his frequent mails.
Sources said Chefalkar recently sent a few
derogatory emails to the police. “Women constables who check emails as
Routine Writers’ work, opened his email and were shocked to see the
vulgar language used in it. Chefalkar had used abusive words for woman,”
a police officer said. Following this, a woman constable lodged an FIR
against Chefalkar under sections 509 (outraging the modesty of a woman)
and 500 (Punishment for defamation) of the Indian Penal Code. “We have
registered an FIR and probing it,” added the officer.
