Adv. Pratima Coutinho has filed a police complaint against former Sarpanchs Narayan Naik and Sunil Gawas, along with Rocky Vales, for allegedly installing cameras in the bathroom of a public toilet in Sancoale. This alarming accusation has sparked significant concern over privacy violations and the misuse of power by local government officials.

Coutinho asserts that the installation of surveillance equipment in such a private space is not only a severe violation of individual rights but also raises ethical questions about the conduct of elected officials. The complaint emerges in a climate of unrest in Sancoale, exacerbated by a recent hunger strike initiated by Premanand Naik, which aimed to address various local governance issues.
