4 policemen suspended for harassing businessman

Jhansi: Four police personnel including two inspectors posted at Baruasagar police station were suspended on Wednesday while the SO was sent to the lines for harassing a businessman few days ago.
As per the details given to the press by IG (Jhansi range) Subhash Singh Baghel, a few days ago, a jeweller, who was going to Mauranipur from Jhansi, was stopped by the police during routine checking near Baruasagar. The businessman alleged he was forcibly taken to the Baruasagar police station and harassed by making him wait without any reason for long hours.
Later, a delegation of businessmen met the IG and informed him about the entire incident.
Taking the matter seriously, Baghel ordered an enquiry into the matter, and suspended two inspectors and two constables involved in the incident while the station house officer of Baruasaga police station was sent to lines on Wednesday.
“I have ordered a detailed enquiry, and based on the outcomes, we will take further necessary action on those who are at fault,” said the IG in a press brief.
