At a time when the police is considered dishonest and the person donning the uniform often compromising with his duty, a police officer in Darbhanga has set an example. Prabhat Shankar Singh, who is posted as Inspector at APM Police station, on Thursday put his job as a policeman first and got his son arrested on charges of liquor smuggling.

Indrajeet, the son of the police officer, had lately joined a group of liquor smugglers ahead of the festival of Holi. He had smuggled 25 bottles of foreign liquor into Bihar to sell it at a high price in order to make a huge profit, but before he could succeed with his plans, his father came to know about it.

Singh immediately informed his superiors in the Darbhanga Police about his son smuggling liquor into the state, and acting on his information the police carried raids at his house and arrested Indrajeet. Later he was produced in the court and sent to jail.

Top cops in Darbhanga Police are all praise for Prabhat Shankar's dedication to his work and for bringing laurel to the state police by giving credence to his work ahead of his family.

"Inspector Prabhat Singh has set an example with his work and the got his own son arrested for smuggling liquor," said Dilnawaz Khan, DSP, Darbhanga police.
