Lolakshi, who runs a canteen in Belur, has complained to senior police officers against the Javagal police. She said her son Chetan was in a relationship with a girl from an ‘upper caste’, and they got married. However, the couple separated within a few months.
The Javagal police picked him up from his house at Belur on December 2, 2021, informing his mother that he was involved in bike theft. He was kept in the police station for three days before he was remanded in judicial custody. “The police tortured him and later forced him to pose with a bike for photos, to give an impression that he stole that bike,” she alleged.
