When Afroz Khan arrived at the spot and questioned the Govindaraj Nagar police why they were assaulting his son, the team, which included ASI Hanumagouda Patil, constables Arjun Kamble, Prasanna and Suresh snatched his phone, abused him and brutally assaulted him, as per the complaint. They also took him away in a car and threatened to kill him, it added.
The entire incident was captured on CCTV camera. Afroz has claimed that though he lodged a complaint, no case was registered despite bringing the matter to the notice of Deputy SP Mohan Kumar and Police Inspector Raghav.
