Bailancho Ekvott president Auda Viegas on Thursday urged the top brass of the Goa Police to intervene in the alleged harassment of a woman police sub-inspector (PSI) by a male police inspector (PI) in South Goa.
Expressing serious concern over the allegations, Viegas said police stations must remain “clean from any stain,” as they are institutions where citizens approach for justice and protection. She stressed that any form of misconduct within the police force undermines public trust.

Calling for a fair and transparent inquiry, Viegas demanded that the Superintendent of Police (SP), South Goa, personally lead the investigation into the matter. She asserted that accountability at the highest level was necessary to ensure justice to the aggrieved officer.
Warning of strong action, the Bailancho Ekvott president said the organisation would launch an agitation if their demands for an impartial probe and swift action were not met. The issue has sparked concern among civil society groups, who have called for strict measures to address harassment within the police force.
