Bengaluru: A man who aided the police in to catch a gang of drunken men that had assaulted three people during New Year’s Eve revelry, has alleged humiliation and mental torture by the law-enforcement force.
The victim L Ramachandra (29), of Motappana Palya, said the Indiranagar police inspector, Ravi, was angry at him for sharing the CCTV footage of the incident with the media before sending it to him. The inspector made him stand alongside the six suspects and sent the photograph to the media. He even threatened to open his history sheet, Ramachandra said.
The CCTV camera installed in front his house captured the incident in which some rowdies thrash two students, including a girl, after the latter’s bike touches one of them. The video, which went viral, triggered outrage as the incident had occurred despite police enhancing security. Police subsequently arrested ten persons, including two notorious rowdies.
Ramachandra has now filed a complaint with the police complaints authority. The inspector was not available for comment. On Ramachandra’s allegations, the Additional Commissioner of Police has promised to look into the matter.
