Caught on Camera: Police Beating Undertrial in Bhopal Court Premises

Undertrial Anees Khan had apparently refused to enter the courtroom.

Bhopal: The police has been caught on camera at a district court in Bhopal, raining blows on a man in custody.

The man in question was Anees Khan, who has been booked under the Arms Act.
On Saturday, after coming to the court for a hearing, Khan had apparently refused to enter the courtroom. That was when the police personnel accompanying him began using force. They stripped and beat the man and dragged him inside the courtroom.

No one in the state police or administration was available to comment on the incident. State home minister Babulal Gaur is in Haryana for campaigning ahead of the assembly elections in the state.

Congress' state vice president Manak Agarwal said, "This kind of brutality had not happened in the British period even. The Madhya Pradesh police is responsible. Officials who removed his clothes and did this should be suspended."
