Altaf Kaloo denies charges, alleges cop pushed him, seeks impartial probe<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Anantnag, Oct 02 :\u00a0<\/strong>Police have registered a case against National Conference MLA from Pahalgam, Altaf Ahmad Wani alias Altaf Kaloo, and party spokesperson Umesh Bhat alias Umesh Talashi over allegations of assaulting a police personnel deployed as the legislator’s Personal Security Officer (PSO).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to details available with the news agency\u2014(KNO), the case was registered at Police Station Anantnag after the PSO lodged a written complaint alleging that he was assaulted by the MLA and the party spokesperson while performing official duties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The complainant alleged that an argument with the two leaders escalated into a physical altercation during which he was assaulted and sustained injuries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Police have registered FIR No. 334\/2026 under Sections 121 and 351 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS). Further investigation is underway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, Kaloo denied the allegations, terming them baseless and seeking a fair and impartial probe into the incident.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The MLA alleged that the police personnel was absent from duty and that a confrontation ensued after he questioned him about it. He claimed the policeman pushed him when asked to explain his absence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kaloo urged the Inspector General of Police (IGP), Kashmir, and the Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP), Anantnag, to conduct an impartial inquiry to establish the facts surrounding the incident.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He also appealed to police authorities to verify the facts before issuing any official statement, maintaining that the matter should be examined objectively<\/p>\n
