Indore (Madhya Pradesh): A sub-inspector posted at Malharganj police station allegedly abused and assaulted a Dial-112 driver in front of the police station in full public view. ACP Malharganj is investigating the allegation and will present his report within seven days.
The victim, Narendra Chauhan, driver of Dial-112 FRV vehicle, reached additional DCP (zone-1) Alok Kumar Sharma’s office and complained that the incident took place around 10 pm on Wednesday when he was waiting outside the police station in the 112 vehicle to pick up ASI Pradeep Kumar Gautam. At that time, SI Brajesh Sharma called him and asked him to drop him off at his house.
Narendra told SI Sharma that he would be unable to drop him as he had to reach a duty point with ASI Gautam.
Enraged by this, Sharma allegedly began abusing and beating him outside the police station. He then dragged Narendra inside the station and continued to assault him in front of the staff, claimed Chauhan.
The victim further alleged that Sharma also threatened to falsely implicate him in a case. The entire incident was captured on the police station’s CCTV cameras.
The senior officials have reportedly assured him of strict action against the SI if he is found guilty.
Additional DCP Sharma has directed ACP Malharganj Vivek Singh Chauhan to investigate the matter thoroughly and submit a report within seven days.
