Bhubaneswar, Sept 19: Heinous police behaviour meted out to Ankita Pradhan, fiancee of Army Major Gurvansh Singh at Bharatpur police station in Odisha’s capital city Bhubaneswar, came to the fore with the victim sharing her ordeal with media today.

“They (cops) tied my hands and legs and pulled down my pant.  They hit me on my private parts. The IIC exposed beat me and used slang at me,” Ankita told reporters.

It was around 1 am on September 15 when we (Ankita and Major Gurbansh Singh) met some scoundrels on the road. Somehow, we managed to escape their nuisances and reached Bharatpur police station.

“A lady official was in her nighty. I urged her to lodge my complaint. As she didn’t listen to my request and started hackling me, I boldly told her that it was his duty to accept the complaint. She got infuriated and started beating me. Soon, a patrol vehicle reached the P. From the vehicle, two women officials came and pulled down my pant.

They beat me in my private part area. The IIC too beat me and used slang at me,” Ankita told reporters, failing to control her tears.

Taking sou moto cognizance of the ghastly police act, the Nation Commission for Woment sought an action taken report from the Director General of Police. IIC Dinksrushna Das was earlier accused of demanding bribe a video of which had gone viral. However, the BJD government didn’t take any action against him and posted him in the Model police station.
