sexualGurgaon:A woman block education officer (BEO) in Gurgaon has filed a police complaint of sexual harassment against an office superintendent at the district education office (DEO), police said on Wednesday.

Gurgaon BEO Capt. Indu Boken (retd) has alleged that Dinesh Goyal, office superintendent at the DEO, has been sexually harassing her for the last few months.

The former Short Service Commission (SSC) officer said in her complaint that when she complained about Goyal to district education officer Manoj Kaushik, instead of taking action, she (Kaushik) asked her (Boken) to remain silent.

Boken said she was posted in Gurgaon since June 2014 and her brigadier husband was posted in a field area.

Boken, 35, said in her complaint that Goyal, 42, first sent her an obscene message on July 25, 2015, and again on August 15.

She said she ignored the first message, but warned Goyal after the second message.

But Goyal started misbehaving with her in office and made obscene gestures on several occasions, she said.

Boken filed the complaint at the women police station in Sector 51.

A police officer told IANS that a case has been registered against Goyal on charges of sexual harassment, stalking and criminal intimidation under relevant sections of the Indian Penal Code. Goyal is yet to be arrested.

Commenting on the allegation, Kaushik told IANS that Boken never complained to her (Kaushik) verbally or in writing.

Kaushik said she was herself surprised and disturbed.

“I would have taken strict action against the accused if the complaint was made to me,” she said.

Kaushik said she did not have any official information about a police case registered against Goyal.

The court, generally, considers a person who commit a crime and the one who destroys the evidence, as criminals in the eyes of law. But what if an animal destroys the evidence of a crime committed by a human.

In a peculiar incident in Rajasthan, a monkey fled away with the evidence collected by the police in a murder case. The stolen evidence included the murder weapon (a blood-stained knife).

The incident came to light when the police appeared before the court and they had to provide the evidence in the hearing.

The hearing was about the crime which took place in September 2016, in which a person named Shashikant Sharma died at a primary health center under Chandwaji police station. After the body was found, the deceased’s relatives blocked the Jaipur-Delhi highway, demanding an inquiry into the matter.

Following the investigation, the police had arrested Rahul Kandera and Mohanlal Kandera, residents of Chandwaji in relation to the murder. But, when the time came to produce the evidence related to the case, it was found that the police had no evidence with them because a monkey had stolen it from them.

In the court, the police said that the knife, which was the primary evidence, was also taken by the monkey. The cops informed that the evidence of the case was kept in a bag, which was being taken to the court.

The evidence bag contained the knife and 15 other important evidences. However, due to the lack of space in the malkhana, a bag full of evidence was kept under a tree, which led to the incident.
