Creating the Conditions for Indian Police Abolition

The following is a piece by editor Ishita Uppadhyay

‘Take it to the streets, defund the police, no justice, no peace,” is the rallying cry of thousands of protesting Americans. The recent murder of George Floyd has sparked outrage across the United States. Not only has his death bolstered the Black Lives Matter movement, but it has also emboldened many to go beyond the means of peaceful protest, resorting to rioting to voice their indignation. The protests against police brutality and systemic racism are some of the most significant in American history: Angela Davis, prominent activist and police abolitionist, stated that the country has “…never witnessed sustained demonstrations of this size that are so diverse.” The true mark of the movement’s impact, however, isn’t found on social media, but in American political discourse.

Police abolition has once more entered the mainstream American consciousness, and this time, it has transformed beyond a notion restricted to the imaginations of the left. Its implementation has seen beginnings in the massive funding cutbacks announced for the Minneapolis Police Department. The very jargon of political dialogue has changed, with statements made by the Minneapolis City Council announcing a “dismantling” of the police force. The sheer strength of the Black Lives Matter protests has even spurred President Modi to discuss the American unrest with President Trump. A sort of global stirring is taking place, and even India has been roused. This begs the question: is police abolition possible in our dear bharat, or is this a merely a distant fantasy?

The history of police brutality both in the United States and India reveal the entwined nature of law enforcement and violence against the oppressed. Much like the United States, India too faces issues regarding prejudiced policing. A 2019 report [1] published by the Centre for the Study of Developing Societies, New Delhi shows that 35% of Dalit individuals claimed they had been arrested on false charges for petty crimes, while 27% of Adivasi individuals and 47% of Muslim individuals claimed similar discriminate arrests. Recent cases of police brutality have garnered considerable attention, with the brutal custodial torture of father-son duo Jayaraj and Fenix prompting the government to launch a CBI probe into the their deaths. The issue of police brutality has suddenly clawed its way into our dinner-table conversations. The case is inescapable, whether on social media or newspaper headlines. But Indian citizens are shocked, not surprised – Jayaraj and Fenix’s case is only one out of thousands of instances of police brutality that occur in India each year.

The corruption and inefficacy present in the Indian government and its law enforcement has instilled a disdain for appropriately administered justice in its citizens. The killing of Vikas Dubey in a police encounter is a relevant example of this belief in action. Indian responses have been divided on social media, ranging from outrage to pride regarding the Uttar Pradesh police’s actions. While criticisms of the encounter vary, it is clear that the vast majority of the country feels powerless to the actions of the police. Overwhelmed by corrupt judicial systems, citizens accept “justice” administered through extrajudicial killings. It is commonly accepted that due process cannot be ignored, no matter the crime committed. As a nation, we cannot pick and choose where legal modes of justice can be administered, and where they cannot. While this notion is welcomed by the general populace, its implementation proves difficult. In the United States, progressive socio-political ideologies like police abolition are easily brought to the forefront of discourse. This, of course, is relative to how similar realisations would occur in India, where issues of corruption disempower citizens. But within discussions of police abolition in India, one crucial element is often ignored: the unique politics of a post-colonial state.

Post-colonial countries possess a state that operates differently from those never colonized. Due to their developing nature, they are more pliable to revolution and reform. Because Indian law enforcement systems are still in the process of growth, they possess the unique ability to be more effectively shaped by the voices of their citizens. This is simply not the case in the United States. On American freedom, philosopher David Bentley Hart writes: “Chiefly, what they (Americans) have been trained not to know or even suspect is that, in many ways, they enjoy far fewer freedoms, and suffer under a more intrusive, centralized state, than do the citizens of countries with more vigorous social-democratic institutions.”

The amount of citizen dissent necessary to bring about mere conversations regarding American police abolition is proof of Hart’s statement in action. India’s position as a post-colonial country posits unique freedoms and rituals to its citizens. For instance, bribing is a common practice in India. This can be seen in a 2019 survey that illustrates that one in two Indians paid bribes in the past year, with 19% of respondents stating that they had paid bribes to the police force specifically. [2] While illegal, these acts give citizens an involuntary advantage, proving that it is possible to take immediate legal decisions without necessarily using state-sanctioned methods (such as filing a case in court, voting, contacting political representatives.) While wealth and connections are necessary in order to curry favour with the police, it is incomparable to the kind of wealth or political power necessary to impact the decisions of police officers in the United States. In India, a bribe is something even the “common man” can provide.

Further analysis of the Indian position demonstrates that our law enforcement can be considered to be more self-interested, whereas tools of law enforcement in countries like the United States solely serve those at the top of class, race, and sex-based hierarchies. The negative result of this self-interest is that it shifts more power to politicians as the sole purveyors of law enforcement. The positive result? Indian citizens are in a remarkable situation where the police force do not hold absolute power. They do not possess the same credibility or capacity to oppress, as demonstrated by police forces in the United States. This exploration of India as a post-colonial state indicates that it may not be ready for police abolition as undertaken in the United States, due to a lack of development within its police force. Having said that, this belief assumes that instability within a developed state is what creates the conditions for revolution. What if these conditions differ in India?

Marxist ideas regarding revolution believe that it occurs when the maturation of the currently existing socio-political system naturally creates instability. The implications of this definition declare that revolution occurs when the state is weak, an idea supported by historical evidence. Be that as it may, India’s rare position as a developing country with a huge population and self-interested police force enables it to subvert this idea of revolution. Instead of occurring due to maturation of the current system, revolution can occur when the state is still in the process of development. Indian citizens are currently living within the ideal conditions for revolution– all we must do is acknowledge this, and decide to utilise our collective power.

Political theorist Louis Althusser defines the relationship between the government and a police force in his seminal work, “Ideology and Ideological State Apparatuses.” He uses the term ‘repressive state apparatus’ or RSA to refer to bodies such as a state’s police force. Althusser believes that while RSAs are primarily a means of repression by the state, their secondary purpose is to uphold a state’s ideology. Understanding this helps us recognise that if the power of the police force is partially predicated on ideology, changing this ideology can change the police force. It is not individual police officers that create the issue of police brutality, rather, the state that legitimises upper class and upper caste safety as true safety. Contact with the police is first step of interactions within a corrupt justice system. Creating revolutionary change within this first step allows for a reduction of injustices throughout the rest of the state and its associated bodies. We need not wait for a state of extreme instability, as currently occurring in the United States, to demand change. For Indian citizens, the point of power is in the present moment.

Humanity offtrack 💔

molestation (n): sexual assault or abuse of a person, especially a woman or child; the action of pestering or harassing someone in an aggressive or persistent manner.

Above is what the dictionary meaning of molestation refers to as, it particularly emphasises on "woman or child".  Does this imply that abuse and harrasment against men isn't considered much of a molestation? For the past month news headlines and social media posts/stories were flared up with #BlackLivesMatter against police brutality towards civilians. Unfortunately we faced the same but we are not even choosing to call it molestation.

P Jayaraj and J Bennicks, a father- son duo, were picked up by Tuticorin police for keeping their mobile shops open beyond permitted time amid Covid-19. They were trashed and sexually assaulted by the police in custody which resulted in their death. The police shattered their knee caps; their chest hair was ripped from the skin; metal topped batons were inserted into their rectums. This kind of brutality cannot be allowed to go on. N yet we haven't flared it up all over the media platforms. Both are considered to be India's George Floyd. Not only limiting to humans we are molesting animals too. how can we even justify this psychology of ours! 

 Police is someone we seek for our protection to.... as days pass and more details of the gruesome murder of Jayaraj and Bennicks are revealed I can't help but feel sick to the core. Anyone can be a victim of this. Police Brutality is something we need to stop treating as heroism. Even imagining the pain and emotional trauma the family is going is just making my gut wrench! This is not the first uniformed murder; the police has definitely taken the law in it's hands. 

 Suspension of four officials and transfer of one is just another move to hush up the case, as the charge of murder will be filed on the name of the police station and not on any of the specific police officer; the transfer and suspension might be just the another tact to have an unjustified end to the case, c'mon we have to realise the 'murderers' work in and for the law, they definitely are aware of the loopholes and exits! They were even reluctant to book them for the charge of murder not even a FIR was been filed before yesterday. Even if they start an investigation, the investigation will be performed by the fellow police men; there is no reason we can trust their fellow Tamil Nadu Police in this case! Only booking them for the twin murder is not enough, impartial investigation has to be imposed.

 This is completely inhumane and infuriating, I wish I could find words to express my indignation but will it be another uniformed murder in the face of justice by the superheroes who are meant to wear capes and protect us....?

Month in review – June 2020. Like every other month since 2020 begun, June bought it’s own share of bad news and important events. • June was celebrated as Pride month, the month to celebrate, talk about and spread awareness against what is considered to be "normal", because nobody deserves to live a life defined by others and not themselves. As we come to a close of pride month, we hope that people becomes less judgemental and more accepting towards other human beings. #loveislove #pridemonth • A massive outrage over the pregnant elephant who died after eating a pineapple filled with firecrackers showed how inhumane we humans can be. •The shocking death of Sushant Singh Rajput shook the entire nation, especially the Bollywood industry with many questions being asked on the grounds of Nepotism and lobbying in Bollywood. It has also managed to spread awareness on the importance of Mental Health and why it should not be neglected. His death should not go in vain. #ripsushantsinghrajput • The India – China relations went to an all-time low as the Indian army and the Chinese PLA clashed at Galwan Valley after China assaulted the Indian forces. 20 Indian soldiers and 40+ PLA soldiers were killed in this assault and tensions between the nuclear nations is still high. On 29th June, the Indian Govt has banned 59 Chinese apps in India, including TikTok and Shein. #indochina • The Annual Solar eclipse occurred on 21st June, the Summer solstice and was observed by many from different parts of the country and the world. • The police custodial death of Jayaraj and Fenix over a trivial matter has managed to shock the nation and show the face of police brutality in the subcontinent. The court has recently ordered CB-CID to take over the case from the police till the CBI can take over to avoid tampering of evidence. #justiceforjayarajandfenix Plus, India is having around 20,000 new Corona cases per day. #covid19 As we embark into a new month in this cursed year, we certainly hope that there is more positivity all around.

Amid outrage, TN govt to hand over ‘custodial deaths’ probe to CBI, third cop suspended

[maharajnews]

Do follow @maharajnews for trending news Jayaraj and Beniks case: E Palaniswami and his deputy O Pannerselvam had in a statement called the deaths New Delhi: The case of a father and son who died in Tamil Nadu's Tuticorin amid allegations of police brutality in custody will be handed over to the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) for investigation, Chief Minister E Palaniswami said today. The controversial case sparked massive outrage across the country after the father and son were allegedly tortured by the police before being sent to jail for apparently keeping their shop open beyond permissible hours during lockdown. "The government has decided to have a CBI probe. We would hand over the case to CBI with permission from the Madras High Court. We would do this during the next hearing. Presently the Madras High Court is probing on its own," the chief minister said J Jayaraj, 59, and Beniks Immanuel, 31, were subjected to brutal torture in police custody, a letter from Jayaraj's wife to government officials states. She has demanded action against the policemen involved in the case which has been widely compared to the death of George Floyd in the United States. E Palaniswami and his deputy O Pannerselvam had in a statement called the deaths "very unfortunate" and vowed justice in the case. #justice #blacklivesmatter #love #law #peace #lawyer #equality #freedom #georgefloyd #justiceforgeorgefloyd #blm #legal #attorney #truth #protest #humanrights #justiceforjayarajandfenix #racism #lawyers #lawfirm #repost #trump #america #lawyerlife #india @samcj_95 (at Delhi, India) https://www.instagram.com/p/CB-xnoDnct7/?igshid=13l3aoitb9rsu
