IndiaThe Kerala High Court has ordered the Additional Chief Secretary (Home) and the Vigilance and Anti-Corruption Bureau (VACB) to provide documents related to allegations against Director General of Police (DGP) S. Sreejith. These allegations come from Dipin Edavana, an Assistant Motor Vehicles Inspector, who claims Sreejith engaged in corrupt practices and abused his authority. The petition challenges an earlier decision by the ACS, which deemed the allegations 'generalized and speculative' and ruled out a vigilance investigation at that time. The court requested specific records from Edavana's case be submitted in a sealed envelope and asked the authorities to file any objections. The ACS previously reported that Sreejith traveled to Abu Dhabi on casual leave with approval from the State Police Chief, and no evidence supported claims he wore a police uniform during the event. The ACS also noted that some allegations could be addressed through internal inquiries and that there was no proof of financial gain from Sreejith's extracurricular activities.
