Two Cops Suspended for Extorting Doctor in Bhopal
Two police officers in Bhopal, India, were suspended after they were accused of threatening a doctor and his female colleagues.
The officers allegedly told the doctor they would make up a fake 'love jihad' case against him unless he gave them money.
The doctor gave them Rs 5000, and the next day, other doctors complained to the police.
The police chief then suspended the two officers and started an investigation.
The officers were not even supposed to be working in that area, which made their actions even more suspicious.
Two constables in Bhopal were suspended for allegedly extorting Rs 5000 from a junior doctor, Dr. Mujeeb, by threatening to frame him in a fake 'love jihad' case.
The incident occurred on November 28 at Kaliyasot Dam, which falls under the Chunabhatti police station, but the accused officers were posted at different police stations.
The constables and their associates allegedly assaulted Dr. Mujeeb and threatened to implicate him in a false case.
The Junior Doctors’ Association (JUDA) lodged a formal complaint and protested, leading to the suspension of the two constables.
The police commissioner initiated an inquiry into the matter, and the suspended officers' conduct was found suspicious.
