CNN Central News & Networks / ITDC India ePress / ITDC News /Agencies/ Bhopal: A case has come to light in Bilaspur, Chhattisgarh, in which a youth was allegedly beaten with sticks on suspicion of theft. The youth is accused of vandalising a shop. It is being said that a trader and a security guard caught him, after which he was assaulted. Allegations have been made that the youth was kicked, punched and beaten with sticks.
According to the information, after suspicion of vandalism at the shop, the trader and the guard caught the youth. The situation then deteriorated and the youth was allegedly assaulted. During the incident, it has emerged that the youth was kicked and punched, besides being beaten with sticks.
The incident has again highlighted the issue of taking the law into one’s own hands and the need to follow due legal process when a person is under suspicion. In cases of suspected theft or vandalism, informing the police and cooperating in the investigation is the proper procedure. Assaulting a suspect can lead to legal action. At present, detailed official information is not available on the extent of the youth’s injuries, whether a police complaint has been registered, or what action has been taken against those concerned. The full situation will become clear only after the police investigation and an official statement in the matter.
