His name is Ratikanta Behuria. Who is protecting him?
What makes him so untouchable? Why is he still roaming free?" Banerjee wrote.He also took a swipe at the BJP government's much-publicised encounter model, questioning why it was not being applied in this case. "And where is the much publicised 'encounter model' now?
Wasn't it supposed to apply when a police officer is physically assaulted @SuvenduWB? Or do the rules suddenly change depending on political connections?" he asked.Questioning the police's handling of the case, the TMC MP said: "Is the law taking its course, or is political patronage shielding the accused?
Kolkata Police owes the people an explanation." He also criticised Kolkata Police Commissioner, writing, "Shame on @CPKolkata for this deafening silence!"The allegations come amid a political confrontation over the late-night clash outside Banerjee's residence in Kalighat. The confrontation occurred after TMC supporters assembled outside his home to celebrate his birthday and clashed with BJP supporters.ADHIKARI VOWS ACTION AGAINST THOSE ATTACKING COPSEarlier on Monday, West Bengal Chief Minister Suvendu Adhikari said cases had been filed under relevant provisions of law against everyone identified in video footage as having attacked or threatened police personnel during the clash.Adhikari said the police would submit charge sheets to ensure that the accused faced trial while in custody.
