Bulandshahr: Four policemen have been suspended following allegations that they planted a pistol in a car of a youth to frame him in a false case, officials said on Monday.
Dinesh Kumar, father of the youth, Amit, alleged his son was returning from a function on July 21 when some policemen stopped his car in a market and forcibly placed a pistol in the vehicle. A case was then registered against him and he was sent to jail, he said.
The incident occurred in the Shikarpur police station area. A purported video of the incident in which the policemen are seen removing a weapon from a motorcycle and placing it in a car surfaced online.
All policemen seen in the video have been suspended with immediate effect by the Senior Superintendent of Police, officials said.
