Police officers accused of harassment
It is reported that Sukhwant Singh, a resident of Kashipur, made an emotional video before committing suicide. In the video, Sukhwant alleged that property dealers in the district had defrauded him of crores of rupees. He tried to file a complaint with the police, but several police officers, including the SSP, refused to listen to him. He also claimed that they mentally harassed him, which led him to take this drastic step.
