    UP: Revenue clerks, suspected of accepting bribes, attack anti-corruption officers

    What's the story

    An anti-corruption team was attacked by a mob of revenue clerks in Uttar Pradesh's Barabanki on Sunday.

    The officers were keeping an eye on some clerks as they were caught accepting bribes earlier when the attack took place.

    The attack came days after two revenue clerks and a clerical assistant were arrested on a farmer's complaint.

    Their vehicle was vandalized during the attack, and police visuals showed a man with a bloodied face being taken away.

    The farmer who had complained against the clerks also suffered injuries in the assault. He was taken away from the spot by police for his safety.

    After the incident, a group of revenue clerks assembled at a local police station. They accused the anti-corruption team of indecency during their monitoring operation.

    A female revenue clerk also filed a counter-complaint against these officers over their conduct in this incident.

    "On December 17, an anti-corruption team in Ayodhya caught some revenue clerks taking bribes and got a case registered," Barabanki ASP Akhilesh Narayan Singh said.

    Eight to 10 clerks misbehaved with and assaulted these officers while they were being taken into custody, Singh added.

    CCTV footage from the scene of the incident is being analyzed as part of their ongoing investigation into this matter.
