'Police are not nawabs, they must follow rule of law'

What is so big about it. Read this.The fact that Supreme Court later expunged these remarks does not change the ground reality.

A pronouncement by Justice Anand Narain Mulla of the Allahabad High Court nearly half a century ago is often quoted even today. He said: “There is not a single lawless group in the whole of the country whose record of crime comes anywhere near the record of that single organised unit which is known as the Indian Police Force..”

Police is indeed Nawab. Read this:

Cops book six-year-old, MP court rejects case

Bhopal: Children accused of committing crimes are produced in juvenile courts. But on Friday, a magistrate of the juvenile court in Sagar district was surprised to find a six-year-old boy standing before him. He asked the boy his name. The child replied, “Ajju Ahirwar,’’ and then said, “I am hungry. I want to eat.’’ 
    The magistrate was touched. He took out some money from his pocket and ordered that samosas be brought for the boy. As Ajju munched on the samosas,the magistrate dismissed the case registered against him by the Sagar police. 
    An enquiry has been ordered into how the boy was arrested. According to Section 82 of the IPC, “Nothing is an offence which is done by a child under seven years of age. Ajju was arrested on February 14, detained in a police lock-up along with his father and brother and released on bail that evening. After his arrest, the police did not even have a vehicle to take the boy to the police station. So Ajju walked 2 km to the police station. A resident of slums on the outskirts of Sagar town, Ajju’s father, Govind Ahirwar, works as a labourer. Govind got into a squabble with his neighbour over drinking water. An altercation was followed by an exchange of blows. FIRs were lodged after which Govind and his sons, Lallu and Ajju, were arrested. TNN

More than Nawabs.

More than Nawab. Less than the king. STF chief owns up to dacoity, role in cop killing unclear TIMES NEWS NETWORK Pa n i p at / C h a n d i g a r h : Haryana STF chief Ashok Sheoran was formally arrested in Panipat on Tuesday after he confessed, after a 30-hour-long grilling, that he was the gang leader of dacoit cops in his force. Questions were also being raised whether the additional SP was linked to Delhi Police encounter specialist Rajbir Singh’s murder. Sheoran, a Haryana Police Service officer, continued to deny his involvement in the dacoity but gave in under intense grilling on Tuesday when he was brought face to face with seven other accused members of his team. He will be produced in court on Wednesday morning. “We will seek his police remand,’’ SSP Rajender Singh said. Police sources in Gurgaon, where Rajbir Singh was killed in March 2008, meanwhile said the two bullets which killed him possibly came out of ASP Sheoran’s .32 bore service revolver. Rajbir, credited with successfully investigating the Parliament terror attack and the Red Fort shootout, was gunned down at a property dealer’s office in Gurgaon. The property dealer denied the murder charge. “At that time, Sheoran, who was SP, Hisar, had said that he had lost his gun during an encounter in Dadri while accused Vijay Bhardwaj who had killed Rajbir told us he got the gun from a criminal. The case was transferred to CBI and we had recommended the agency probe Sheoran’s role in the case,’’ said a senior Gurgaon police officer.

Terrorist / Maoist / Naxal - combined together.

Anil sir u r more than right. Actual scenario is police is not only nawabs rather above the law/above the Hon'ble SC.  A police can do what any court can't. Judges may not have experiance of police as a commoner.
