KOLKATA: A shocking video of Alipurduar district magistrate in West Bengal thrashing a man - accused of allegedly making derogatory comments against his wife on social media - inside the police station in the presence of cops has surfaced online.

Soon after Binod made some derogatory comments against Nandini, Falakata police picked him up from his home and took him to the police station. The DM reached there with his wife and thrashed the man black and blue.


In the five minutes and 52 seconds video, the DM slapped Binod 10 times and kicked him too, while his wife Nandini also thrashed and threatened him in front of the police officers.


With the question being raised if the DM has the the right to beat a man inside police station, state chief secretary Malay De has got the report of the incident.


The administration is due to take action against the DM.
