Bengaluru: City Police Commissioner Kamal Pant on Wednesday evening tweeted the details of vehicles seized on May 19 from 10:00 am to 8:00 pm. The top-cop however faced flak from the Twitter users over the tweet, calling out on the city police for allegedly harassing people during the lockdown.
In the tweet, Kamal Pant noted a total of 941 vehicles including, 870 two-wheelers, 37 three-wheelers, and 34 four-wheelers were seized during the day. He further added 06 cases were booked under NDMA laws for violation of lockdown norms.
Twitter users lashed out at the Commissioner of Police and called out to him for allowing the vehicle of CM Yediyurappa’s son for inter-district travel although he wasn’t serving any emergency.
Other users also complained about alleged harassment by the city police during the lockdown and claimed the police would only check and seize vehicles when there are media cameras around and would otherwise let go of people riding triple seats.
CM Yediyurappa’s son BY Vijayendra had earlier on Wednesday triggered controversy after breaking lockdown rules to visit the temple by traveling inter-district to Nanajandudu with his wife.

ಹೆಚ್ಚು ವಾಹನ ಜಪ್ತಿ ಆಗಿರುವುದು ಬೈಕ್ ಗಳು.
ಅದರ ಮಾಲೀಕರು ಬಹುತೇಕ ಕೆಳ ಮಧ್ಯಮ ವರ್ಷ ಹಾಗೂ ಕಾರ್ಮಿಕರು. ಮೂರು ಚಕ್ರ ಬಹುತೇಕ ಕೆಳ ಮಧ್ಯಮ ವರ್ಗ
ಲಾಕ್ದೌನ್ ಕಸಿದಿರುವುದು ಅವರ ಜೀವನವನ್ನೇ ಈಗ ಅವರ ಜೀವನದ ಬಹುಮುಖ್ಯ ಸಂಪಾದನೆ ವಾಹನವನ್ನು ಕೂಡ ಕಸಿದಿದೆ
ಪುಟ್ಟನ ಪುರುಷ ಒಲೆ ಮುಂದೆ ಅನ್ನುವ ರೀತಿ ಆಯಿತು. ಮೊನ್ನೆಯಷ್ಟೇ ಮುಖ್ಯಮಂತ್ರಿ ಮಗಾ ನಂಜನಗೂಡುನಲ್ಲಿಪೂಜೆಯನ್ನು ಮಾಡಿಸಿದ್ರು. ಅವರಿಗೆ ಯಾವ ಶಿಕ್ಷೆ?

When there’re media cameras near checking points , your men check every single vehicle, when there is no camera, even if people go triple riding , they don’t care at all

Ghaziabad(UP) (PTI): A 48-year-old woman was killed allegedly by her tenants when she went to their flat to collect rent, police said on Thursday.
The deceased, identified as Deepshikha Sharma, was killed around 11 pm at Aura Chimera Society, Assistant Commissioner of Police (ACP) Nandgram Upasna Pandey said.
Preliminary investigation revealed that Deepshikha and her husband, Umesh Sharma, owned two flats in the society, one of which had been rented out to a couple.
She went to the rented flat to collect rent but did not return till late night, raising suspicion.
Her maid, along with neighbours, went to the flat to look for her, following which Deepshikha's body was recovered stuffed inside a red bag from the flat, the ACP said.
Police were informed at around 11.15 pm through the PRV, after which a team reached the spot and arrested the couple, identified as Ajay Gupta (35) and Akriti Gupta (33), she said.
A case was registered and the body was sent for post-mortem examination. Further investigation is underway, the ACP added.
