KOLKATA: Police are probing a businessman’s complaint of road rage and misbehaviour by a cop on Christmas morning.
Somnath Mukherjee, a biochemist, has emailed the police commissioner, alleging a cop in uniform misbehaved with him after the police vehicle hit his car in Bagbazar around 10.30am on Friday. He claimed the cop not only charged his driver with causing the accident but also dared him to file a complaint. Mukherjee clicked photos of the SUV and cop.
Senior cops said they were probing the incident and would initiate a departmental inquiry. DC (north) Joyeeta Bose called Mukherjee the same evening and promised action. “She asked me to send the photos which I did,” he said.
