Moustache Mystique

I was making one of my regular visits to the ever wonderful spdk blog and found that they too have a flickr™ page showing their SMT in their finest outfits (not a hiviz to be seen).

Pictured here are the Sooper himself and the Woman's Police Station (sic) boss.

Check the photos out.

Other than these two, it appears that part of the IPS uniform is an obligatory moustache, unless you have a crown (oops, bit too colonial there) on your shoulder or you are of the fairer sex.


Mind you the WPI looks like ..... well you decide.

Striking Forces?

The ever wonderful spdk blog from our Police colleagues in Mangalore ran this blog entry about problems they are having as described here. I am interested to know what "striking forces" are? Not getting their 3% either?

Best Police Blog.....EVER!

I must thank PC Copperfield, in his outstanding Policeman's Blog for finding
this doozie of a blog and making me chortle this early in the morning on a day off!

As an example, here is a daily incident report regarding a RTC (which is a vehicle accident to you mops) :


A case of Fatal Road accident has been registered in Vittla Police Station. On 10/08/2006 at 1800 hrs one Chethan driver of Bus bearing Reg. No. KA-19-AC-4313 drove his vehicle in a rash and negligent manner and dashed to a motorcycle bearing Reg. No. KA-19-U-4164 driven by one Imthiyaz. As a result pillion rider Suprith (20) sustained serious injuries and died on the spot. Another pillion rider Jesnaru D’souza (17) R/o Chandalike Vittal village Bantwal Taluk sustained simple injuries. Motorcycle rider Imthiyaz did not sustain any injuries.

Read it again..... like me, does that make 3 on the bike?

There's much, much, more ..... from this Sooper in Mangalore!
