| A man was beaten up by the public in Bihar's Bhagalpur district after he reportedly snatched a woman's chain.
His hands were bound behind his back and he was thrashed by the public and the police. The man was then dragged by a motorcycle, with a policeman at the wheel.
Despite the chain being recovered, the man was beaten up by the public. Instead of preventing the public from assaulting the victim, the police also joined in.
A probe has been ordered by Bihar Police into the incident. Anil Sinha, spokesperson of the Bihar police said that strict action will be taken and such violence couldn't be condoned.
''The SP has been ordered to suspend the policeman who is dragging the man on his bike. The official has been suspended. And an inquiry has also been ordered,'' said Afzal Amanullah, Home Secretary, Bihar.
''The matter will be investigated. The police spokesperson has spoken about it. A probe has been ordered,'' said Nitish Kumar, CM, Bihar.
Former Chief Minister Lalu Yadav said it's a proof of jungle raj in Bihar.
''This is a shameful incident. They just accused this man of some small theft and beat him mercilessly. It is an attampt to murder. There is jungle raj in Bihar. And Nitish Kumar has no control over law and order in the state,'' he said.
The policeman who beat up the man, has been identified as a sub-inspector.
