The news has caused a stir among the top brass of the Nagpur police department. The police personnel deployed at Gokulpeth Police Chowki alerted their superiors but received a stern reprimand in exchange, as per the sources.
However, speaking to Nagpur Today, Senior Police Inspector Gajanan Kalyankar has refuted the theft, stating that the cooler was not stolen and must have been put away by the cops themselves. Despite his denial, police sources have confirmed the theft.
It is pertinent to mention that a few days back, miscreants had set three bikes of Sitabuldi police on fire too right in front of Vasantrao Naik Police Chowki. The cops had to toil for almost a week to bring the goon to book.
These incidents have raised serious concerns about the security arrangements at Police Stations in Nagpur.
