  • A shocking incident has come to the fore where a 35-year-old man was severely beaten up by two policemen in Indore, Madhya Pradesh, allegedly for not wearing a face mask properly.

    The incident took place in Firoz Gandhi Nagar under the Pardesipura Police Station area of the city.

    Both the accused cops have since been suspended.

    A video of the incident has gone viral

  • In a purported video, that has surfaced on social media, two police personnel can be seen kicking and punching Krishna Keyer, an autorickshaw driver, as he vainly tried to protect himself.

    His teenaged son, who was accompanying him, kept screaming for help.

    The assault took place in the middle of a road and while many looked on, nobody came forward to help him.

    However, two policemen caught him on the road and asked him to come to the police station. When he refused, they started beating him.

    The cops - Kamal Prajapat and Dharmendra Jat - were later identified, suspended, and sent to Police Lines.

    Keyer already facing cheating cases, police says

  • The police, on the other hand, said that the man first assaulted and abused the constables in question, PTI reported. The man also allegedly grabbed the collar of one of the cops.

    Another police official was quoted as saying that Keyer was already facing cheating and extortion cases in the city.

    Meanwhile, the City Superintendent of Police has been asked to probe the matter.

    The policemen didn't listen: Victim's son

  • "My father was badly beaten up because his mask was below his chin. They [policemen] did not listen to me (sic)," Keyer's son said. Recently, there have been several reports of policemen resorting to corporal punishment in case people were found violating COVID-19 protocols.
