In Ahmedabad, a group of miscreants attacked two youths, resulting in the death of one youth and the other being seriously injured and undergoing treatment in the hospital.
A PCR (Police Control Room) van was standing nearby at the time of the incident, but the policemen inside the vehicle were fast asleep!
On Monday night, six miscreants attacked Vijay alias Vishal Srimali and his friend Priyesh, residents of Narora area of Ahmedabad. When Vijay and Priyesh protested against their misbehavior, an argument started and the accused Jaysingh Solanki stabbed Vijay in the chest. Priyesh was also seriously injured while trying to save him. Vijay died on the spot and Priyesh was admitted to the hospital.
After the incident, locals gathered there and saw a police PCR van standing nearby. But the policemen there were sleeping soundly under blankets! Angry villagers woke up the policemen and questioned them harshly and recorded the moment on video, which later went viral on social media.
Ahmedabad Police took action after the video of the incident went viral on social media. A statement from the police said, “Action is being taken against the policemen present at the scene.” Meanwhile, police have arrested six people, including the two main accused, involved in the murder.
The responsibility of the police PCR team is to protect the city’s security, patrol and respond quickly in case of emergencies. But questions have been raised everywhere about such negligence by the policemen on duty.
