Bulandshahr SSP Dinesh Kumar said on Monday, "The court's order is yet to be received. Once it is, we will comply and take appropriate action." According to a petition filed by the man's father, SHO Ramveer Singh, sub-inspector Manish Chauhan, constables Lokendra Singh and Pankaj Panwar, and home guard Pramod Singh forcibly took his son from their home on Jan 3, 2023. The officers allegedly detained him at the police station and beat him for over two days. "My son was picked up in a police vehicle at midnight while we were attending a funeral. My daughter called us, and we rushed back. The cops denied the allegations and two days later, my son was produced in court and jailed under the Arms Act. We later secured bail," the father said. He added, "My son is mentally disabled since birth. There's been no improvement in his condition in all these years. How can someone who cannot manage basic daily tasks possess illegal arms, as the police claim?" The family also alleged that despite several complaints to the SSP, no action was taken, prompting them to approach the court. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Many Are Watching Tariffs - Few Are Watching What Nvidia Just Launched Seeking Alpha Read More Undo During proceedings, it was revealed that before the arrest, police had detained another villager in the same case and even conducted his medical examination.
