    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, if you go through the papers which have been laid on the Table, you will find that, indeed, it is true that the officer was charged with four counts. He was discharged on two counts, namely, one and two, but he was charged by the orderlies for counts three and four. He lost the pistol and we told him to show us where it was. Our Force Standing Orders are quite categorical on the misuse and loss of firearms. The officer has not requested or applied for reinstatement through the Commissioner of Police. He has done that through the PPO, who had dismissed him. I am telling my colleague to let the officer now apply for reinstatement to the Commissioner of Police. If he applies through the PPO, the PPO had already finished with him. If he appeals against the dismissal directly to the Commissioner, his case can be reconsidered. But as at now, if he appeals through the PPO, the PPO will not even be able to forward his appeal letter to the Commissioner because as far as the PPO is concerned, he had already dismissed the officer. I would just request my colleague to ask that officer to apply for reinstatement or to appeal through the Commissioner of Police and not through the PPO, for consideration."
