In yet controversy that shows the Ahmedabad Police in bad light, a video of a PCR (police control room) officer verbally threatening and abusing a civilian that he will be shot with his revolver has gone viral, raising serious concerns about police misconduct. This incident comes in the wake of the recent Naroda PCR liquor scandal, further exposing lapses in police supervision.

In the footage, the PCR in-charge is seen engaging in a heated argument, followed by a physical scuffle. The officer then threatened to use his revolver and threatened to shoot the individual.
The incident reportedly took place in the jurisdiction of Naroda police station, where a luxury bus was stopped for violating traffic regulations. What began as a routine penalty quickly escalated into a violent confrontation, leading to the lodging of a formal complaint at the police station.
Following the circulation of the video, questions have been raised about the accountability of senior police officials. The incident has highlighted the lack of proper supervision, allowing PCR teams to act recklessly and misuse their authority. The controversy comes shortly after the Naroda PCR being embroiled in a liquor smuggling scandal, further denting public confidence in the city’s law enforcement.
