A substandard bulletproof jacket that failed to protect former ATS chief Hemant Karkare from the bullets of 26/11 attackers and later kicked up a massive uproar over the safety of Mumbai police personnel ended up in a dustbin at JJ Hospital.
This startling revelation has come in the form of a reply to a Right to Information application filed by RTI Activists Anil Galgali. Apparently, the police department learnt about the lapse a year after 10 LeT men brought carnage to the streets of Mumbai, but chose to keep mum.
RTI Activist Anil Galgali file a RTI and ask the details of Bulletproof jacket of Hemant Karkare during 26/11 Mumbai Attack. Mumbai Police's Public Relation Officer Suresh Sakpal informed Galgali that the Bulletproof jacket was thrown into a dustbin by a ward boy at JJ Hospital.
Anil Galgali has termed it abject carelessness of the statement stating that the bulletproof vest has been lost and thrown in the dustbin. There exists a huge question mark on the quality and the standard of the bullet proof jacket. Had the bullet proof jacket worn by karkare been examined, the whole scam in the purchase of the jackets would have stood exposed, said Galgali.
