| Eight Border Security Force (BSF) jawans have been suspended after a disturbing video, accessed by the media including NDTV, showed what appears to be a group of jawans beating up a young man ruthlessly near the Bangladesh border after he allegedly refused to give them a bribe.
The victim is seen on the ground with his hands and feet tied as the men in uniform torture and strip him. The assault reportedly took place in Murshidabad district in West Bengal close to the Bangladesh border.
The men in uniform allegedly suspected their victim was a cow smuggler. When they caught him, he allegedly refused to pay them a bribe. They retaliated viciously. Locals are saying the man was then pushed across the border into Bangladesh but this has not been independently confirmed.
Top officers of the BSF say the incident took place on December 9 and that further probe is on.
NDTV cannot confirm the origin or authenticity of the video. | |
