Police investigating CS phone tapping fears

GANGTOK, 04 Apr: The allegations of the Chief Secretary, AK Shrivastava of his landline phone at home being tapped has been taken seriously by the Sikkim Police and investigations have begun into the allegations with a General Diary being registered in the Sadar Police Station on 01 April.
Speaking to NOW! over the phone, SP [East] Manoj Tewari informed that investigations into the matter have begun and the Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited [BSNL] has been asked to submit a report regarding the same. Since BSNL is the service provider for land-lines they have been asked to submit a report as soon as possible since it is election time, he added.
As the matter is very serious in nature, BSNL has also been asked to check with their linesmen as well, he said and added that the police are trying their level best to sort out the problem.

“If any person is found to be involved then we will register a case and take necessary action accordingly,” he stated. Since this is just based on suspicion at present, only a General Diary has been registered at the police station and depending on further information a case will be registered if required, he added.
