The Deputy Commissioner of Police Rohidas Pawar issued a suspension order on Saturday for the woman constable involved in the recent assault of a woman animal feeder in Dhayari. This decision came after a video of the incident went viral on social media. The video showed the constable choking the victim and disregarding food which was intended for community dogs.
The victim was reported to have sustained multiple injuries, including neck contusions, strangulation marks, and nasal bleeding as confirmed by a medical report from a civil hospital. In light of this incident, an official inquiry was launched to address the case and determine further actions after a comprehensive review by senior police officers.
When asked about this situation, the DCP Rohidas Pawar said to The Free Press Journal, “We received the report from the Haveli police station, and after reviewing the case, we decided to suspend the female constable. This incident occurred a few days ago, and an FIR has already been registered at the Haveli police station.”
The incident has sparked outrage, as seen through a tweet by Bhagyendrasinh, which read, “@CPPuneCity @PuneCityPolice @DGPMaharashtra Thank you for making the city such a safe place. Your head constable is out thrashing stray dog feeders who have been protected by the Supreme Court. Your police station takes no action and instead files a cross complaint. SHAME.”
The suspension of the constable sends a clear message that such behaviour will not be tolerated. It is encouraging to know that Pune City Police is taking appropriate action to address the incident, thereby helping to maintain a safe environment for the community.
