Ex-DGP Sanjay Pandey denies extortion charge

The registration of an FIR against the former Director-General of Police of Maharashtra, Sanjay Pandey, by the Thane police on Tuesday has sent shock waves in police circles as the retired IPS officer is known for his clean image. Many find it difficult to believe that a person of Pandey’s calibre could indulge in “extortion and forgery”. In fact, because of his non-corrupt nature he did not find favour with most politicians and was often given “side postings” or relatively unimportant departments.

A businessman Ashok Punamiya had registered an FIR for alleged extortion and other Indian Penal Code offences against Pandey, a former IPS officer of the 1986 batch, and seven others. The alleged offences were reportedly committed between May 2021 and June 30, 2024.
