Police Commissioner A. Ravi Shankar denies political angle in family attack case, warns against spreading misinformation.
Police Commissioner A. Ravi Shankar on Saturday refuted the allegations that there was a political angle in the case relating to the attack on three members of a family at Burma Colony in Kancharapalem here on May 15.
“There is no political angle in the incident. It was just a petty dispute between two families. We have video evidence on the dispute. However, the families claim that they were beaten up after voting for some party. We suspect it as a wrong statement, but would investigate it,” he said.
Mr. Ravi Shankar said that people should not spread any disinformation and misinformation regarding such incidents. Anybody spreading misinformation without seeking clarification from the police will have to face the law, he warned.
