Vanzara: Adored Modi like a god but he couldn't rise to the occasion under the evil influence of Amit Shah

Ahmedabad: Controversial IPS officer D G Vanzara, suspended and behind the bars in a string of fake encounter cases, has resigned from service accusing Narendra Modi government of having failed to protect the jailed police

Vanzara held Shah responsible for the transfer of Sohrabuddin Sheikh and Tulsi Prajapati encounter cases out of Gujarat. He also accused Shah of adopting 'British policy of divide and rule' towards state police officers and for creating the crisis of confidence among senior officers.

"Instead of providing an innovative and benevolent leadership for keeping the police force of the state intact, efficient and fighting machine, Amit Shah introduced a much despised British policy of divide and rule coupled with equally dirty policy of use the officers and throw them by deliberately spreading disinformation about them"

"Amit Shah lost all credibility and confidence which ignited the `yadavasthali' or fratricidal police war in Gujarat which was later on exploited by CBI opening the floodgates of politico-legal problems for this government"

"I sincerely believe and state that but for the legal and political intrigues, machinations and manoeuvring of Amit Shah the trial of Sohrabuddin encounter case, followed by that of Tulsiram encounter case, would not have gone out of the state of Gujarat" .

The suspended officer dubbed the Gujarat government as "spineless" when it came to protecting its own officers.

"...I have to state in nutshell that this spineless government of Gujarat which is valiant only in words otherwise coward in deeds and impotent in actions has ceased to command my allegiance, trust and loyalty," he said.

"...And that is why this government has no reason to keep me continued in its service nor I have a reason to continue to be in the service of this government even for a single day," he said.

At present 32 policemen, including six IPS officers from Gujarat and Rajasthan are under arrest in four encounter cases being probed by CBI and names of six more IPS officers have figured in the charge sheets filed in Tulsi Prajapati and Ishrat Jahan encounter cases.
