Indore: Policemen allegedly thrash mask-less man; cop says viral video edited

A mask-less man was allegedly beaten up by two police constables on the road in Madhya Pradesh's Indore city on Tuesday.

After a video of the alleged incident went viral on social media, both policemen were suspended, an official said.

The victim said he was brutally assaulted by the policemen.

However, police claimed the man first assaulted and abused the constables.

Superintendent of Police (East) Ashutosh Bagri said the two constables seen in the video have been suspended and a City Superintendent of Police (CSP) has been asked to investigate the matter.

"The video of the incident which is going viral on social media has been edited and cropped to tarnish the image of the police," Bagri said.
