Pilibhit (UP): A constable of the Uttar Pradesh Police was on Tuesday caught on camera, brutally assaulting an accused who was arrested by his team.
The incident of the constable assaulting the man in broad daylight was shot by people on the spot, which has now gone viral across social media platforms.
According to the reports, the constable in the video is currently deployed with Pilibit Police. He assaulted the accused when the latter tried to escape from police custody while being taken to court for production.
The accused was reportedly arrested on charges of producing illicit liquor.
Pilibhit SP Dinesh Kumar said "A man was arrested for making illicit liquor and was remanded to judicial custody. The man was being taken to the court for his trial. The man was in a police car and he tried to escape custody by jumping from it. With the help of the public and cops present on the scene, police got a hold of him."
SP Dinesh Kumar also said that the accused tried to attack the policemen and, they had to chase him and overpower him with force. The accused was taken back to custody after the use of force and the public present at the scene was not harmed, SP Kumar added.
"However, we will probe the entire incident and the existing FIR will add charges pertaining to attack police and escaping from police custody," Pilibhit SP Dinesh Kumar stated.

Ranchi: Champai Soren, a prominent figure in Jharkhand’s statehood movement, is contesting the 2024 assembly elections from Seraikela, a seat he has consistently held since 1991.
However, there is a surprising shift in his political journey this year. Having resigned from the Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM) earlier this year, Soren is now representing the BJP, a move that could significantly impact the electoral dynamics in the state.
Soren’s switiching is seen as a strategic benefit for the saffron party, which has been working to expand its appeal among Jharkhand’s tribal communities, a demographic traditionally aligned with the JMM. His departure from the JMM, led by Shibu Soren and his son Hemant Soren, was fueled by dissatisfaction with the state government’s policies, which he claimed had failed to address tribal concerns.
Also known as "Jharkhand’s Tiger" for his instrumental role in the statehood movement of the 1990s, Champai Soren has respect and influence among tribal voters. His decision to switch the party could be a turning point in the BJP’s efforts to gain a stronger hold in a state where tribal votes often decide the outcome.
