A video of Superintendent of Police (SP) of Nawada district, Bihar, Gaurav Mangla, allegedly keeping five policemen inside lock-up at a police station over their non-performance went viral on social media platforms. Following this, the Bihar Police Association on Sunday demanded a judicial probe into the incident.
It is said that when the SP visited Nawada police station for inspection at night on September 8, he reportedly got angry over non-performance of five policemen posted at the police station. The SP inspected the station diary and was said to be thoroughly dissatisfied with the performance of two Sub-Inspectors and three Assistant Sub-Inspectors. He reportedly got furious and ordered to put the police officials inside the lock-up at the police station from where they were released after two hours around midnight.
The officials who were put inside the lock-up were Shatrughan Paswan, Ramrekha Singh, Santosh Paswan, Sanjay Singh and Rameshwar Oraon. In the viral video, the police officials inside the lock-up are seen chatting among themselves while one of them, relieving himself in a separate enclosure of the lock-up.
