“There was congestion on the road, and the bus stopped near the car. The mirror was close to the bus. To prevent it from getting hit by the bus, I went and moved the mirror inwards. The man stepped out of the car and hurled abuses at me. I tried to explain to him that the bus was going to move and the mirror was in the way. He got angry and pushed me. I got inside the bus, but he followed me and beat me again,” said Parvez, who suffered minor injuries to his limbs and face.

In a video of the incident, the officer is seen hurling abuses and thrashing Parvez inside the bus. A woman marshal and some passengers try to stop the fight. The policeman stops hitting the marshal but continues arguing with him.

Festive offer

A senior police officer at Burari police station said, “We have registered a case against the officer under IPC sections 323 (voluntarily causing hurt) and 506 (criminal intimidation). During preliminary enquiry, we found that both the men beat each other up. We are investigating further to verify the claims.”
