The Bihar Police found themselves embroiled in a distressing incident, where the body of an accident victim was subjected to an undignified act. A video capturing this unfortunate incident has circulated widely on social media, prompting public outrage and condemnation of the inhumane treatment inflicted upon the deceased.
This incident unfolded in the vicinity of the Dhodhi Canal Bridge, situated in the Fakuli OP area of Muzaffarpur. The video footage depicts a grim scene where three policemen are involved in a disheartening act. Initially, two officers can be observed painstakingly dragging the blood-stained body of a man, whose identity remains undisclosed, towards the canal. Subsequently, a third policeman intervenes to assist in the callous act of disposing of the body into the canal.
Providing insights into the situation, Fakuli OP in charge of Mohan Kumar offered an explanation. He disclosed that the unfortunate incident had transpired when an elderly man became the victim of a tragic accident involving a truck. Regrettably, some body parts and items of clothing belonging to the victim were found to be adhering to the road surface, rendering them unrecoverable for the purpose of conducting a postmortem examination. Consequently, the items that were deemed suitable for retrieval were forwarded for postmortem procedures, while the remaining components were, quite shockingly, discarded into the canal.
After the video footage began circulating widely and triggering public outrage, the Muzaffarpur Police issued an official statement. According to this statement, the man had tragically fallen victim to a road accident on a fateful Sunday morning. The police were promptly notified about the incident, and they subsequently proceeded to the accident site. The deceased individual's body was then dispatched to the Sri Krishna Medical College and Hospital (SKMCH) for the necessary postmortem examination.
Furthermore, the police have initiated an investigation to ascertain the authenticity and details surrounding the viral video. They have unequivocally assured the public that strict and decisive action will be taken against any individuals found culpable of involvement in this heartrending incident.
Subsequent to the video's widespread circulation, law enforcement authorities undertook the retrieval of the discarded body parts from the canal. These retrieved remains were then duly sent for postmortem examination, in a commendable effort to rectify the situation and uphold the dignity of the deceased individual.
