Chandrakant, a traffic police constable attached to Traffic Station I in Kalaburagi city, has made an attempt to end his life by consuming poison for being harassed by his senior officials.
Chandrakant has been admitted to Gulbarga Institute of Medical Sciences (GIMS) for treatment.
After the incident, a video has been circulating on social media in which a Head Constable identified as Bheema Naik is seen expressing his intense loathing of the police brutality and requested higher officials to curb the prevailing collection culture in the department and to stop harassing lower-rung officials and police personnel by setting a monthly target of collecting bribe from the people.
