RETIRED IAF OFFR ARRESTED ON CHARGES OF FINANCIAL
BUNGLING
A retired Wing Commander of the Indian Air Force was today arrested on charges of financial bungling in the accounts of a society for jawans and their widows which was spearheading the agitation for 'One Rank One Pension', at JM at Delhi and all over the Country.
Wing Commander (retd) C K Sharma has been booked under sections 420 (cheating), 406 (punishment for criminal breach of trust) and 34 (acts done by several persons in furtherance of common intention) of IPC. He will be produced before a court tomorrow, police said.
An FIR was registered against Sharma on the directions of the magistrate following a complaint by Lt Gen (retd) Raj Kadiyan, the chairman of Indian Ex-Servicemen Movement (IESM), who had alleged the officer siphoned off Rs 14 lakh from the accounts of the organisation.
Police had registered a case against three persons on February 8 after Kadiyan in a complaint alleged that "they had taken a lot of cash from the society funds between January and July 2013".
The three -- Sharma, Maj Gen (retd) Satbir Singh and Group Capt (retd) V K Gandhi -- had recently moved a local court for anticipatory bail, but their plea was rejected.
The trio are the office bearers of IESM, formed in 2008. The society's account is being maintained in a private bank. Sharma held the post of Treasurer.
His daughter claimed that the Haryana police physically picked up Wing Commander CK Sharma from his residence late on Thursday evening without explaining the charges against him.
An IESM press release states that there were strict instructions from the high court to the police to not take any arbitrary action until the hearing, which is scheduled to take place on Friday

Wg Cdr CK Sharma, Treasurer, IESM was picked up by the Haryana Police this evening without assigning any reasons and taken to EOW, Palam Vihar.
They only said they are taking him to Palam Vihar but on inquiry it was found that he was not taken there. His present where abouts are not known.
Presumably it is in connection with the case filed by Lt Gen Raj Kadyan against office bearers fo IESM. This is in spite of the matter being subjudice and the Hon'ble Judge specifically passing an order for no police action till judgement. Matter is being heard in Punjab and Haryana High Court.
How can the Haryana Police act in this high headed manner when the matter is already being heard in court? Action of the Police is condemnable and utterly irresponsible. This amounts to harassment of Veterans without any basis.

Dear All,
The timing of this action, in this three year old case is perfect - from the Govt's stand point.
Pardon my saying that all so called justifications for re-juvenating this dead horse is purely a self-serving action by the concerned parties.
Notwithstanding their pious protestations to the contrary, this action only serves the ends of the Govt against the true OROP.
One just needs to note the names of the stalwarts who send their inconsequential vitriolic response to this mail. They belong to the Jaichand Group!
PRESS RELEASE
HARYANA POLICE’s HIGHHANDEDNESS
AGAINST VETERANS
In the dead of night on 10 March, 75 years old medically unwell, Wing Commander CK Sharma (Retd) , Treasurer of the Indian Ex-Servicemen’s Movement (IESM),was picked up by the Haryana Police from his Gurgaon residence on flimsy charges filed by a disgruntled former functionary of IESM about some alleged financial discrepancy in the OROP related accounts . The case is three years old , which was investigated twice over earlier by the same very Police and had been dismissed by it both times on the grounds that the charges were untenable . Even though the case was in the Punjab and Haryana High Court for anticipatory bail against the denial of the same by the lower court, and it was verbally conveyed by the Hon’ble Court on 10 March to the defendants’ lawyer that no pre-emptive action was to be taken till the hearing on 11 March, and the same was conveyed to the police, yet the police arrested the Ex-Serviceman in a very humiliating manner, who was not even allowed to make phone calls or change from his night suit to normal clothes. It was a case of financial nature but the police acted in such a highhanded manner which is not even used against the confirmed terrorists. Our system is great, wherein , likes of Vijay Mallya, who defrauded the banks of Rs 9000 crores, are allowed to leave the country, whereas poor Treasurer of the IESM is arrested and hauled over coals for a small amount !!
This act seems to be possibly of coercing the Ex-Servicemen to close down their ongoing agitation at the Jantar Mantar (JM) , with regards to the rectification of enormous anomalies in the OROP as notified by the Govt earlier .
It is worth noting that about a month back the very same police were found hiding when Haryana was burning as the result of violent Jat Agitation for reservation and miserably failed to stop the riots . Where was the police when property worth thousands of crores was destroyed, hundreds of vehicles burnt and women violated and even allegedly gang raped? Now, the same cowardly police shows its might and bravery against a helpless and hapless , ailing, old retired Air Warrior ! Least they could have done was to show some civility to someone who gave his youth for this country.
We the Veterans and all other like minded persons highly condemn the uncalled for and extreme highhandedness of Haryana Police. We demand a judicial inquiry into the same and severe action against the guilty.

Don't pay them.....reduce their numbers and firepower.....treat them as day labourers..... Buy more coffins....march with the deceased........the new honours for Indian soldiers!
While the ED has been pro active in picking up a service veteran, they have let the nation's biggest fish get away. If this is how law enforcement agencies perform their duties, the citizens have every right to be concerned. The judiciary in our country enjoys great respect, but such events tend to dilute the respect. It is hoped that the service veteran will be given the respect he deserves and not coerced into making any adverse statement. Truth shall prevail, as indeed, it must.
