An IPS officer of the Nagaland cadre, hailing from Meerut, has been accused of repeatedly beating up his wife.

The injury marks on the wife’s body had been corroborated in a medical report, said a police officer.

On May 17, the woman approached the police with a swollen face and eyes. The Nauchandi police station registered an FIR.

The 32-year-old woman alleged that her husband, posted in Delhi, had been repeatedly beating her up over the past few years. She also accused him of demanding dowry.

Prashant Kumar, ADGP, Meerut Zone, said, “The woman was brutally beaten up, so we have registered a case at a local police station here and the investigation is under way.

“The accused, who is of Nagaland cadre and is currently posted in Delhi, hails from Meerut. Prima facie it seems to be a case of marital dispute.”

The officer is currently posted as Assistant Commandant in sixth Nagaland Armed Police Battalion.

A separate report about the case would be sent to the Nagaland government, the parent cadre of the accused, sources said.

Singh told the police that the last time she was physically abused was at their Gurugram house when she was “physically tortured for hours at a stretch”. Following this she returned to her parents in Meerut and decided to file the case. IANS
