T R Suresh is Mangaluru's new police commissioner

Published On : 30 May 2017   |  Reported By : Canaranews Network


Mangaluru: Karnataka state government cancelled the appointment of DIG N Satheesh Kumar as police commissioner of Mangaluru and appointed T R Suresh. The government last week had appointed Satheesh to replace M Chandra Sekhar, who has been transferred to CID and Economic Offenses Wing in Bengaluru.

Local Congress leaders were furious at the appointment of the officer, who had earlier served as SP of Dakshina Kannada, during the church attacks and the failure of police to deal with Hindu chauvinist organisations, who unleashed a spate of attacks on Christian religious institutions across the coastal districts.

T R Suresh is an IPS of the 2003 batch and he had also served as DCP , Bengaluru North. The government had transferred Suresh from the post in last September after violence broke out in Bengaluru over the Cauvery water issue.

The city police and DK district police units have a serious task in dealing with communal tensions, dealing with organised and underworld crime and face constant interference in work from political parties.
