National Investigation Agency (NIA) has completed investigation into the alleged nexus of dismissed deputy superintendent of police (DSP), Davinder Singh and according to sources the charge sheet would be filed in the court within a fortnight. Having risen quickly in rank after he was recruited as a sub-inspector of police in 1989, Singh shocked his seniors in J&K police on January 11 this year when he was arrested in Mir Bazaar area of Srinagar-Jammu highway with his fellow passengers, Irfan Mir and Naveed Mushtaq, two most wanted militants. In a brazen faced manner he had argued with police officers who intercepted his car that he was going on a 'secret operation' which only his seniors knew about. The bluff did not pay because Singh was on the radar of his seniors since the last three months for his reported links with the militants. Had Singh's clandestine links not been exposed, he was likely to be promoted to the rank of the superintendent of police (SP) shortly. (IANS)
