The Tamil Nadu Director General of Police (DGP) is set to submit a report on the investigation conducted by the CB-CID into allegations that a senior IPS officer cheated a woman through the false promise of marriage. Deputy Director of Tamil Nadu Police Academy, S Selvanagarathinam, is accused of threatening and cheating the woman who had approached the DGP in September 2022. After the CB-CID submitted its initial findings, the Home Secretary issued a memo recommending disciplinary action against the accused officer. Currently, the DGP is all set to submit his findings to the Madras High Court. It is important to note that the complainant is missing, and her whereabouts are unknown.
According to the complaint filed by Latha, an MBA graduate from Chennai, she met Selvanagarathinam through Instagram in 2019. He allegedly promised to marry her after introducing himself as someone who had gone through a divorce and was lonely. The CB-CID’s preliminary findings confirmed that Selvanagarathinam visited multiple places with Latha between August and October 2019. After being approached by Latha, the CB-CID conducted an inquiry, and the Home Secretary issued a charge memo, ordering disciplinary proceedings against the officer for gross misconduct.
Latha disappeared after the case of cyber harassment filed against her by the wife of the accused IPS officer. Her well-wishers are concerned about her whereabouts. Several people reportedly approached Latha to settle the matter, but she refused to withdraw her complaint. The Tamil Nadu government has yet to appoint an officer to initiate departmental proceedings against Selvanagarathinam, and the Ministry of Home Affairs will take the final decision after receiving the report.
