On getting the notice, Parmar turned up on Thursday. The court asked Parmar the reason for not obeying its order but when he could not give a satisfactory reply, the court slapped a fine of Rs 100 on him.During the hearings of the case, Parmar had not even submitted any report to the court.Parmar, who is currently posted in license branch of city police, was serving as inspector of Bapod police station, after he was transferred from City police station, where he created quite a stir.
