CHIEF Minister MK Stalin on Sunday said the State police should prevent custodial deaths and strive to create an environment that did not allow crime. The CM was speaking at an event in Egmore wherein Vice President (V-P) Venkaiah Naidu presented the President’s Colour Award to the TN police.
His statement gains significance given that TN saw a string of custodial deaths in the first half of 2022. Four persons died between April and June — two in Chennai, one in Tiruvannamalai, and one in Nagapattinam. There were 17 custodial deaths in 2018. In 2021, however, it came down to four, he said, adding that TN police should reach a stage where there was no custodial death. “Also, instead of only trying to bring down the incidence of crime, police should focus on creating an environment that doesn’t allow crime.”
