This petition comes up today 1st April 2008. It is listed at No 20.

On 27th March 2008, a criminal writ application No 101 / 2008 was filed in the Mumbai High Court for action against the Commissioner of Police, Mumbai, for allowing hundreds of police inspectors working under him to build illegal outposts across the city and pilfer electric power for them.

A leading newspaper had reported the story in May 2007, but the Commissioner did nothing to stop this illegal practice. After a writ petition was filed in the High Court, the court on 24th October 2007 ordered the police to demolish 269 police chowkies and give the list of all officers involved.

However all the High Court orders were ignored.
