Delhi Police’s Blunder: Russian Mother Flees with Child, SC Seeks Interpol Action
The Supreme Court on Friday sharply criticised the Delhi Police for its failure to prevent a Russian woman from absconding with her child, despite specific court orders. The woman, who was subject to a court-mandated surveillance, escaped to Nepal.
The court expressed serious concern over the blatant disregard for its directives. The lapse in security has raised questions about the effectiveness of police procedures in high-profile cases.
A detailed status report has been demanded from the Delhi Police. The Supreme Court hinted at strong action, including the issuance of a red corner notice via Interpol, to secure the woman’s return and the child’s safe recovery.
This incident underscores the urgent need for improved inter-agency coordination and stricter enforcement of court orders. The potential for international ramifications and the child’s welfare are now at the forefront of this case, demanding swift and decisive action.
