Amitabh Bachchan’s police bodyguard transferred over reports of Rs 1.5 crore income

Amitabh Bachchan’s police bodyguard Jitendra Shinde hit headlines after it was reported that he earned a whopping income of Rs 1.5 crore annually . He is a head constable with the Mumbai police and was assigned to protect Big B. However, soon after reports of his income emerged, he was transferred to D B Marg police station by city police commissioner Hemant Nagrale. The state government is reportedly checking if Jitendra Shinde had informed police authorities about his annual income and if he was indeed earning more income from other sources, which is prohibited under state service rules.
A senior IPS officer told TOI that Jitendra Shinde had been associated with Amitabh Bachchan since 2015 and his transfer was a routine one, since no police constable is allowed to hold the same post beyond five years. The police department has been reportedly informed that Jitendra Shinde’s wife runs an agency of providing security to leading personalities, but they will confirm the same after a show-cause notice if served to him. Jitendra Shinde has been often spotted with Amitabh Bachchan at several public outings and events.
