Indore:
Three policemen were today suspended for allegedly attacking five journalists causing them injuries at the Government Railway Police station here.
The five journalists were injured and admitted to hospital when they were allegedly assaulted by the policemen at the Government Railway Police station here.
"After watching the video-footage of the incident, a head constable and two constables were suspended," the Superintendent of Railway Police, R C Burra told PTI.
The incident took place late last night when some TV journalists had a dispute with the men employed by the parking contractor near the Indore railway station. A group of scribes reached the GRP station on the premises, demanding immediate arrest of those involved in the dispute.
As the GRP personnel were not ready to entertain the complaint, a heated argument ensued, in which three of the policemen allegedly attacked the mediamen with sticks.
Five journalists were injured and three of them admitted to a private hospital.
Later, on the intervention of senior officials, a case was registered against two of the parking contractor's men for manhandling and abusing.
