After an FIR was lodged over an alleged assault on a lawyer in Bhopal, suspended police officer Rajan Ahirwar posted a video defending his actions and accusing a female officer of serious misconduct.
An FIR was registered in Bhopal after a lawyer alleged that he was assaulted by police personnel. The complaint has set off a formal investigation into the incident.
Rajan Ahirwar, a police inspector from the Jabalpur range who has been suspended pending inquiry, released a video statement for the first time. In the recording, he contended that the allegations against him are being exaggerated and asserted that not every police officer can be held responsible for every action.
Ahirwar also directed serious accusations toward a senior female officer, claiming she was involved in misconduct related to the case. He urged the authorities to examine the evidence before drawing conclusions.
The police department has not yet issued an official response to Ahirwar's video, and the investigation into both the alleged assault and the internal allegations remains ongoing.
