Kozhikode
A 50-year-old man, who was summoned to the Koyilandy police station on Thursday as part of an investigation into a property-related dispute, was allegedly beaten up by a police officer associated with the probe. Babu, a native of Koyilandy, who sustained injuries in the incident, was put under observation at the Kozhikode Medical College Hospital.
The relatives of the injured man said the police officer involved in the incident was reluctant to take the injured man to the hospital. He was taken to a nearby government hospital only when he complained of serious chest pain, they claimed.
