Court summons MLA for abusing traffic cop

Daundkar told the court that when he learnt that the said report of traffic police branch was dumped, an application was made by him to file a separate FIR.  

However, though there was an official report prepared by the Traffic Police Branch, Worli, that filthy abuses were hurled by the MLA on a police personnel in uniform, no FIR was registered, the complaint said.

The police have already registered a case against Thakur and another MLA Ram Kadam for assaulting Suryawanshi inside the state Legislature complex.

On March 19, an FIR was registered at Marine Drive police station against Thakur (Independent), Kadam (MNS) and 14 others for allegedly beating up the 31-year-old police sub inspector inside Vidhan Bhavan premises.

Later, the Crime Branch took over the probe. They were granted bail on March 25.
