In Srinagar, the Army has come forward to address the accusations made against its soldiers for allegedly assaulting some policemen in Kupwara district of Jammu & Kashmir. The Army released a statement clarifying that the claims of a scuffle between the police and Army personnel and consequent beating of the police officers are baseless and untrue. It further clarified that there were some minor disagreements between the police and a territorial army unit regarding an ongoing operation, but they were resolved peacefully.
According to officials, the incident occurred earlier in the day when a team of soldiers, accompanied by an officer, entered the Kupwara police station and allegedly beat up four policemen, including two Special Police Officers (SPOs) and two constables. The injured officers were then taken to the Sher-e-Kashmir Institute of Medical Sciences in Srinagar for medical treatment. It was reported that the soldiers were infuriated by a police raid at the house of a Territorial Army soldier, which led to their aggressive behavior at the police station.
Thankfully, the injured policemen are now in a stable condition as confirmed by the doctors at SKIMS hospital. The officials also added that the misunderstanding between the two forces has been resolved and there is no tension between them. The Army has always maintained a cordial relationship with the local police, and this incident has not changed that.
The Army also emphasized that they have the utmost respect for the law and will not tolerate any misconduct by their personnel. They have also assured that a thorough investigation will be conducted to get to the bottom of this incident and appropriate action will be taken if necessary. The Army is committed to maintaining peace and harmony in the region and will continue to work closely with the local police to achieve this goal. We hope that this incident will not affect the strong bond between the Army and the police in Jammu & Kashmir.
