Police Transferred After Protest Over Youth's Alleged Murder
A group of people protested in India because they believed the police didn't do enough to help a missing young man who was later found dead.
They were angry and said the police took too long to act.
During the protest, some police officers were hurt.
As a result, the police decided to move all the officers from the local police station to a different location.
This happened because of complaints about how those officers behaved and what they did or didn't do regarding the case.

The protest was triggered by the alleged murder of a local youth, Shabaj Alam.
Protesters stormed a police outpost and attacked officers.
