Bhadrak: A constable was suspended for allegedly thrashing a youth in full public glare near Banta police station in Odisha’s Bhadrak district on Monday.
Bhadrak SP Rajesh Pandit ordered for his suspension after a video of this incident went viral on social media.
Reports said about five policemen detained a youth near Banta police station on Bhadrak-Anandpur state highway for not wearing a face mask and severely thrashed them in presence of the IIC of the Mahila Police Station.
