Notice how a cop is holding his pants as he argues with other cops. He is constantly pulling the pants. Notice for how long Cobra Commando Sachin Savant holds his patience. Then he's attacked with a lathihttps://t.co/UxYgNfDvJT— Soumyadipta (@Soumyadipta) April 26, 2020
Sachin Sawant was then allegedly beaten by the police personnel, without any warning.Despite informing the police personnel that he is a CRPF commando and is currently on leave, and since he was cleaning his bike in front of his own house and not going anywhere, and thus he did not need to wear a mask, the police personnel allegedly kept beating and abusing him.
Sachin Savant then was paraded to the police station in handcuffs and was put under custody. The police has allegedly registered an FIR under section 353 (Assault or criminal force to deter public servant from discharge of his duty),504 & 505 (Intentional insult with intent to provoke breach of the peace) of IPC.
I hope this is not what we call a citizen-centric policing and perhaps it's too much demeaning a behaviour with a uniformed personnel, I hope competent authorities will take suitable action to rectify the wrong which has been committed@DgpKarnataka @crpfindia @CoBRASECTORHQ pic.twitter.com/5ZoQAOIjbY
