A senior lady officer of Patna was caught on camera beating a woman protester in public while the locals were protesting electrocution of two youth in the city's Kankarbagh area on Monday evening.
The drama began after the death of two young men which triggered a traffic jam in the area caused by the agitated locals leading to the police action. The protesters alleged that the policemen who reached the spot initially were drunk and they pelted stones on them.
Later, Patna's city SP Kim visited the spot and entered into a verbal altercation with a protester. She lost her cool and slapped the protestor twice. The stunned protester slapped the SP back.
The assault by the officer quickly acquired a political colour with the Opposition demanding stern action against her and other policemen.
