Case Title: U. Manickavel v. State rep. by Secretary and others
Case No: WP No. 2627 of 2014, MADRAS HIGH COURT
Coming down heavily on the abuse of power among higher police officials, the Madras High Court has observed that indiscipline amongst higher officials of the police department causes disaster consequences. When the higher officials are not maintaining the expected level of discipline, they may not be in a position to control the force, which would result in the force losing morale.
Justice SM Subramaniam also cited instances of allegation in the public domain, as follows:
"Already there are several such allegations in the public domain regarding the usage of black film in the official vehicles by the higher officials of the police department, misuse of the department's name in the private vehicles, abuse of police force in the name of orderly in their residences or otherwise and several such allegations are either unnoticed or no action has been taken by the Government
