JAMMU, Oct 6: The irresponsible doctors deprived police for five days to have an initial statement of victim, who was brutally injured in an incident of attempt to murder. Despite pleas by the police to get access to the victim, so that action could be taken against the criminals accused in the brutal stabbing, case, doctors, refused to budge, giving enough time to the criminals to escape the law. Pertinent to mention here that the incident had occurred on the evening of October 1, when 40 year old Paramjeet Singh s/o Amrik Singh resident of Sector -12 Nanak Nagar stopped at Shah filling station located at Nanak Nagar to fill petrol, and suddenly he was intercepted by some persons, with whom he had some old enmity. The two sides exchanged heated arguments before the victim was attacked with a sharp edged weapon. Soon after stabbing him, the assailants fled from the spot leaving the victim in pool of blood. Later some passerby rushed him to Government Medical College (GMC) for treatment. Since the victim was not in a condition to make a statement, the police actively launched a manhunt to arrest the culprits, but after two days when the victim after treatment was shifted to the general ward, police had approached doctors to allow them to record the statement of victim.. The doctor present on duty denied them access advocating that it is a holiday despite that fact that it would have helped to solve the case. Even, today when the police officials Darshan Singh, Sub Inspector, Police station Gandhi Nagar along with IO Abdul Qyoom went to the hospital for the statement the on duty officer refused again advocating that there is no Doctor present in the hospital and he cannot allow them to conduct victim’s statement. After more than 3 hours of argument and after the intervention of Senior Police officer the registrar of the hospital permitted them for their prior job. In the belated statement the victim (Paramjeet singh @ Shampoo) stated that three persons namely Pawandeep singh @ Tawan son of Varinder Singh resident of Nanak Nagar, Jagmeet Singh @Golu son of Gurdeep Singh and Preetpal Singh @ Bobby son of Harpal Singh both resident of sec-11 Nanak Nagar attacked on him on Oct. 1st evening where Golu and Bobby hold him from both side and the main accused Pawandeep Singh @Tawan stabbed him with a sharp edged weapon (krich). Darshan Singh, Sub Inspector, Police station Gandhi Nagar said that the case against the accused has been registered wide Fir no. 241/2011 under section 307/341/ 34 Rpc , 4/25 arms act at police station Gandhi Nagar Jammu.
