A video showing a woman and her grandson being brutally assaulted by police officers in a police station in Madhya Pradesh’s Katni district went viral, causing a political uproar. The video sparked accusations of police brutality and a cover-up, with opposition parties demanding action against the officers involved. However, a subsequent investigation has revealed that the incident occurred in October 2023 and involved a known criminal and his family. The woman and her grandson are related to Deepak Vanshkar, a criminal with 19 criminal cases against him. Vanshkar had been declared a wanted criminal and was being sought for theft. The Madhya Pradesh police have taken action, placing the station house officer of the Katni GRP (Government Railway Police) under suspension and initiating a high-level investigation into the incident. The investigation is ongoing, and further details are expected to be revealed.
