Policemen abuse schoolteacher for recording ‘high-handedness’

The Hindu  

A case of “high-handedness” of Uttar Pradesh Police came to light on Monday when a 53-year-old schoolteacher in Agra tweeted for urgent help after some policemen allegedly hurled abuses at her and her family members for making a video of them “beating those violating the lockdown”. Deepti Saraswat, a teacher at St. Felix Nursery School, wrote in her tweet that she was having tea with her doctor husband, currently posted at a COVID hospital in Aligarh and under home quarantine after active duty, in the first-floor balcony of her residence when they saw some policemen abusing two elderly persons on scooters on the road in front of their house. “I was recording the video to show it to my son, who was insisting on going out for some work, that how the police were behaving even with people who were wearing masks. “I teach children to become good citizens but such misuse of power has forced me to question my teaching methodology.” Superintendent of Police Rohan Pramod Botre said he has taken note of the tweet.
