The Tripura Human Rights Commission has urged for action and compensation in a case of police torture.


The Tripura Human Rights Commission (THRC) has taken a decisive stance, urging the state government to take punitive action against a Tripura Police Sub-inspector (SI) and provide compensation to a victim for their alleged involvement in torture, harassment, and severe human rights violations. The THRC's recommendation comes in response to a complaint filed by Mani Das(Shib), the wife of Sujit Kumar Shib of Narshingarh, resulting in a registered case (Complaint No. 35 of 2023).

The complaint alleges that on September 11, 2022, two individuals forcibly removed Sujit Kumar Shib from his home and took him to Airport P.S. Subsequently, SI Biswajit Das transported him to Ramnagar Outpost, where the victim was reportedly subjected to merciless beatings by local residents. Recognizing the gravity of the situation, the THRC initiated an investigation into the matter, directing the Director General of Police, Tripura, and the Commission's Investigation Wing to conduct inquiries.

Upon reviewing the reports and pertinent documentation provided by the DGP and the Investigation Wing, the THRC concluded that SI Biswajit Das had engaged in severe misconduct and flagrant violations of Sujit Kumar Shib's human rights. As a result, the Commission ordered compensation of Rs. 1,00,000/- to be paid to the victim within one month by the Tripura Home Department. Additionally, it stipulated that the government should recover the awarded amount from SI Biswajit Das's salary or other payable sources.
