Members of the National Commission for Scheduled Castes (NCSC) on Tuesday interacted with the family members of the Vishnupriya — Deputy Superintendant of Police (DSP) at Tiruchengode who was found hanging at her official residence on September 17 — in Kondur, near here.
The team, led by P. Ramaswamy, Assistant Director of National Commission for Scheduled Castes, held discussions with M. Ravi, father of Vishnupriya, and other family members for over an hour at their residence.
Briefing reporters, Mr. Ramaswamy said that the family had complained that Vishnupriya faced pressure from higher-ups in the Police Department over the Gokulraj murder case.
The family had also demanded a probe by an independent agency to ascertain the reason behind her death.
“We will submit the observation report based on the discussions with the family members and suggestions made by them to the National Commission for Scheduled Castes within four days. The decision of the commission will be final and we will wait for suggestions of the Chairman,” Mr. Ramaswamy said.
