A first information report (FIR) was registered against him under the Goa Non-Biodegradable Garbage Control Act, 1996, which prescribes a maximum fine of ₹1,000 and a one-month jail for dumping plastic waste in the open.“We had received a complaint that he was illegally dumping garbage and that the video had gone viral on social media. We examined it and registered an offence under the Non-biodegradable Act, 1996. The punishment that is meted out is mostly that of a fine, although imprisonment is also one of the options at the discretion of the court,” Shaikh added.The student’s family linked his death to the local police summoning him and keeping him waiting for half a day. He was also warned that he couldn’t leave the state until the investigation in the case was complete, his family alleged.Shaikh defended the police action, suggesting that he had to wait because the cops were busy.“We called him to the police station, interviewed him, issued a notice to him and sent him home. At that time, there were many people at the police station. Several matters were ongoing, so it took us some time to deal with him,” he added.
