Bengaluru: Former DySP of Kudligi in Ballari, Anupama Shenoy, who had resigned in June, has released five audio clippings which have her telephonic conversations with former minister Parameshwara Naik, DG&IGP Om Prakash and then Ballari IGP Murugan.
Ms Shenoy was at loggerheads with the then district in charge minister of Ballari, Mr Naik, and was transferred after she put his call on hold as she was speaking to a senior officer. One of the audio clipping reveals how Mr Naik arrogantly speaks to Ms Shenoy. But she counters him saying he should treat her with respect.
Another audio clipping has Mr Murugan advising Ms Shenoy (in pic) over phone to seek apology from Mr Naik and telling her that police officers should not lose their temper. He says that Mr Naik kept calling him and asks Ms Shenoy to speak to the minister immediately and listen to him even if he shouts at her.
In the other audio bit, state police chief Om Prakash is heard giving options to the former police officer on the vacant DySP posts available. He gives her 3-4 options on postings in various places and tells her that she cannot choose Udupi as she hails from that place.
As Ms Shenoy asks him whether it was a punishment transfer, the higher officer tells her that he would have not given her choices if it was a punishment transfer and says that it was a reward transfer. He also advises her to not think of the reasons behind her transfer.
In another call, also from the state police headquarters, Mr Prakash confirms with Ms Shenoy whether she had received the transfer order. Ms Shenoy had resigned alleging pressure and harassment from the illegal liquor lobby in Kudligi.
