ACCIDENT-CASE 2 LAST

Maintaining that the issue of who pulled the chain to stop
the train was yet to be established, Paulson said the three
Kota constables had come to his office at around 1500 hrs to
lodge an FIR on the escape of the criminal, while the accident
had occurred in the wee hours yesterday.
The constables told the SSP that Sazid escaped in the
confusion after the accident. On the issue of delay in
registration of the complaint, they said that they could not
do so earlier as the entire staff was busy at the accident
site.
But, the constables could not explain how the criminal,
who was handcuffed and tied with a rope, managed to free
himself and escape, police said.
Police said they were probing if Sazid's escape may have
led to chain pulling that brought Mewar Express to a sudden
halt. PTI
