Patna: Five police
officials have been suspended in Bihar's Rohtas district for their
alleged involvement in a custodial death, police Tuesday said.
Rohtas Superintendent of Police Manu Maharaj suspended the five
police officials, including the Dehri police station house
officer.
Maharaj took action against the police officials after an inquiry
report by Assistant Superintendent of Police Kumar Amar Singh
found them guilty of negligence on duty in the matter.
Ram Chandra Sharma, 35, who was arrested by the Dehri police with
a bag of stolen copper wire was reportedly beaten up badly in
lockup and died Sunday.
Maharaj also ordered departmental and legal proceedings against
the officials and requested the district and sessions judge of
Rohtas for a judicial inquiry into the custodial death.
