They took the phone numbers of all the children present in Madarsa. Later they asked the Madrasa management to get 3 kids to the Lalaguda Police station. When the caretaker Mannan visited Lalaguda Police station. The 3 kids were beaten up and tortured by Lallaguda Police. Also they forced the kids to give false statements. This is not acceptable at all. Very rude & harsh behaviour by Lalaguda Police. (sic)”.
