Bihar Police Harass Siblings at Katihar Restaurant; SHO Suspended
A brother-sister duo faced public humiliation at a restaurant in, Katihar when Barsoi SHO Ram Chandra Mandal and his team aggressively questioned them during dinner. The officers demanded proof of their relationship, used abusive language, and objected to the sister recording the incident, despite the siblings’ calm explanations that they were family.
CCTV footage went viral, sparking outrage. Katihar SP ordered an immediate probe. SHO Mandal was suspended the same day for indecent behavior and negligence, as authorities pledged stricter oversight during election-season checks.
