An FIR has been filed by an IRBn Personnel under Indian Penal Code sections 353 Assault or criminal force to deter public servant from discharge of his duty, IPC 341 Punishment for wrongful restraint, IPC 332 Voluntarily causing hurt to deter public servant from his duty, IPC 186 Whoever voluntarily obstructs any public servant in the discharge of his public functions, shall be punished with imprisonment of either description for a term which may extend to three months, or with fine which may extend to five hundred rupees, or with both, and IPC 34 Acts done by several persons in furtherance of common intention.

Sikkim Police Sub Inspector Rajiv Shanker Bhujel along with six IRBn personnel were deputed at Victoria Cross Ganju Lama Senior Secondary School during the semi-final game of Independence football tournament on Saturday.

IRBn personnel went to that part of the ground wherein some unknown person(s) entered the ground and surrounded the duty personnel from all sides and physically assaulted them, mentions the statement from Sikkim Police on Sunday.

On the protest that followed in Sunday with calls for ‘Tibetans Go Back’ in Rabong, Sikkim Police DIG and Spokesperson Tashi Wangyal Bhutia, informed, “The protest in Rabong was not really a rally, but more of a gathering of Rabong residents. It was not pre planned, they were outraged at the whole incident.”

“They dispersed after the arrests were made. Those arrested were from the Tibetan Army. There could be more arrests that could happen. We do not have a number on the people involved. There were three cops who were injured, with one taken to Gangtok, another one in Namchi and one is in Rabong. They are seriously injured, we cannot tell the extent as they are under medical examination. All three are IRBNs”. he added.
