# CSP Neha Pachisia suspended, FIR filed over land deal in Katni 2026-08-20T19:59:22+00:00 | Governance | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet (2 source reports) Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Mohan Yadav ordered the immediate suspension of Katni CSP Neha Pachisia after an FIR was registered against her and two others for allegedly forcing a murder accused's family to sell land worth Rs 82.86 lakh for just Rs 18.20 lakh. The FIR, filed at Kuthla police station on instructions from the Jabalpur zone and based on a vigilance branch complaint, includes charges of fraud, coercion, and criminal conspiracy under BNS sections 61, 198, 199(B), 308(7), and 318(4). According to aajtak.in, a departmental inquiry by Jabalpur ASP Anu Beniwal found that on the registration date (15 April 2026), the buyer's account lacked sufficient funds, Rs 15 lakh was transferred that day from accounts linked to Kshitij Raj Barapatre and Shine Partners, both allegedly connected to Pachisia. The complainant, Akash Lodhi, claimed his father was pressured to sell 2.15 hectares of land while in custody and that his family faced threats when they sought to cancel the deal. Katni SP Abhinay Vishwakarma confirmed the FIR and said further action will follow investigation. ## Indian Opinion Analysis The two aajtak.in reports frame the story identically: both lead with the CM's suspension order and the FIR, present the land valuation gap and suspicious fund transfers as established facts from the departmental inquiry, and include no counter-statements from the accused DSP. This is uniform straight reporting from the official account, there is no independent scrutiny of the inquiry's findings, no voice from Pachisia's side, and no questioning of the complainant's motives. The coverage treats the police narrative as settled. What a careful reader should watch for is whether the accused DSP gets an opportunity to present her version in court or through internal appeal, and whether the investigation uncovers any independent evidence beyond the bank trail. ## Coverage Coverage: 2 sources, 2 neutral - aajtak.in (neutral report) Straight reporting of FIR details and inquiry findings, no editorial slant. - aajtak.in (2) (neutral report) Straight reporting of suspension, FIR, and bank trail details, no editorial slant.
