In a shocking turn of events, two policemen, including a Station House Officer (SHO), and several others are facing serious allegations of property seizure and assault, as revealed by officials on Wednesday.

The incident, brought to light by a High Court directive, led to an FIR being filed at Chakeri police station against SHO Santosh Shukla, Sanigawan police outpost in-charge Ankit Khatana, two builders, and approximately 40 unidentified individuals.

The case, which is still under investigation, has prompted significant concern over police conduct in the region.
