Days after a local woman journalist allegedly jumped to death from her residential building, a police inspector, was arrested in connection with the case.
Inspector Amit was arrested last night in connection with the alleged suicide of the woman journalist.
Amit was today produced before a Court which sent him to four day police remand, police spokesperson said.
Later, Dangi and others left the police station and the
two scribes were allowed to leave from there early morning yesterday.
The condition of the journalists worsened after reaching home, after which they narrated the incident to their editor. On a complaint over the incident, senior police officers swung into action and suspended the three policemen.
The SSP said the duo was taken to a government hospital where they are undergoing treatment. Medical reports confirmed that they suffered injuries, he said.
"It was confirmed that the two policemen had beaten up the scribes, confined them to the police station and did not register any case against them, which amounts to negligence on their part. And therefore, they have been placed under suspension," the senior officer said.
An inquiry has been ordered against the policemen concerned with regards to the issue, he added.
