A police inspector and his assistant of the rank of constable with the Central Crime Branch Police are in the dock for allegedly assaulting and harassing a 39-year-old physically challenged software engineer in connection with a nine-year-old financial dispute case. He was acquitted in 2014.
Based on the complaint filed by the victim to the Police HQ and the State Human Rights Commission, the Home Minister’s office has sought a probe and action-taken report.
The victim, who runs a software training institute in Thippasandra, claimed that he kept getting calls from Police Constable Nagaraj over the last one week demanding that he appear before the inspector for inquiry.
