Hours before suicide, Madhya Pradesh cop's final videos: Seniors colluding with mafia, torturing me
The officer, Pramod Pavan, was posted at the Godan police station and was found hanging inside his official quarters in the district early Tuesday. In a series of videos purportedly recorded hours before his death, ASI Pavan, wearing his uniform, accused senior officers and local mafia members of mental harassment, caste abuse, and criminal collusion.
In the clips, Pavan alleged that he had been facing harassment ever since he intercepted a tractor-trolley carrying illegally mined sand, allegedly linked to a local mafia operative. 'Since then, I've been denied even basic permissions. I can't leave the station for Aadhaar or Samagra cards. Caste slurs are routine. I've been threatened with being run over by a tractor,' he claimed in one video.
Pavan accused his senior of tormenting him and of shielding illegal sand mining and gambling rackets. The officers named in the video have not responded to the allegations.
In another video, Pavan claimed illegal gambling dens are being run openly in the area with the backing of the same officers.
Hours after his body was discovered hanging in his official residence, the Godan police station in-charge, Arvind Singh Bhadauria, was removed from his post and attached to police lines pending inquiry. A formal investigation has been initiated under the Deputy Superintendent of Police (AJK) to ensure impartiality.
A senior police officer said, 'The ASI was found hanging in his official quarters in the police station premises. A thorough probe is underway. Every video will be reviewed objectively, and the documents he shared will be thoroughly scrutinised. No one will be spared if found guilty.'

The accused, identified as Mohammad Jamal Mohammad Hossain Potundar, alias Kuddus Rohim Shaikh, allegedly entered India illegally in 2023 via West Bengal, where he procured a fake Aadhaar card.
