At 84, Bharathiyamma is out to teach the police a lesson

An 84-year-old woman who suffered ignominy and legal proceedings against her for four years because of a mistake committed by the police is out to teach the police a lesson.

Bharathiyamma, a victim of the police’s mistaken identity, has complained to the Chief Minister and the State Human Rights Commission against the police. She is seeking action against the police personnel who subjected her to mental trauma for four years for no fault of hers.

It was in 2019 that the police arrested Bharathiyamma, 84, from Kunissery in connection with a case registered in 1998 against another woman named Bharathi.
