Rights panel moved seeking action against Sub Inspector
A 40-year-old COVID-19 survivor from Kozhikode’s Kadameri village has approached the Kerala State Human Rights Commission seeking action against a Sub Inspector who allegedly showered abuses on him during a surprise vehicle check. P. Latheef, the complainant, claimed that the police officer from Nadapuram station also made derogatory remarks against his mother who recently succumbed to the pandemic. “The officer who intercepted my motorbike near Keeriyangadi claiming that I defied the lockdown regulation on May 21 behaved in an insensitive way with no concern over my emotional trauma. I was out to purchase some essential items for my supermarket at Thannerpanthal,” he said.More Related News
