Bhopal police station officer Rajan Ahirwar has released a video addressing a dispute with advocate Rakesh Rawal. Ahirwar explained his version of events occurred after an FIR was lodged against him and two constables. The video, posted on social media, came days after the suspensions. Ahirwar claimed he had been on duty and exhausted, leading to him shutting his phone's mobile network.
Later, he learned an FIR had been filed against him at his own station. He accused police personnel of experiencing mental strain following the arrival of a new female officer. Ahirwar requested the new officer be excluded from the inquiry. Rawal had claimed an argument over traffic diverts during Ganesh idol immersion on September 22 led to him being taken to the police station and subjected to abuse, being pushed into mud, and beaten with sticks.
Both sides now face FIRs. Police are now reviewing CCTV footage, medical records, and other evidence to determine the facts surrounding the incident.
