The Kerala High Court set aside a report in favour of Additional Director General of Police S. Sreejith and directed the Vigilance Additional Chief Secretary to reconsider a complaint filed by Motor Vehicle department officer Dipin Edavana.
The Kerala High Court has overturned a report that had implicated Additional Director General of Police S. Sreejith, ruling in his favour. The court directed the Vigilance Additional Chief Secretary to revisit the complaint lodged by Motor Vehicle department officer Dipin Edavana. The decision comes after a review of the evidence presented in the case.
In its order, the court noted that the allegations against Sreejith lacked sufficient substantiation. It emphasized the need for a thorough reassessment of the complaint before any further action can be taken. The directive signals a pause in the ongoing investigation.
The move is expected to impact the administrative proceedings against the police officer and may influence future oversight of law‑enforcement conduct in Kerala.
