Ranchi Police Suspends Argodah Station Chief Over Brutality Allegations

In a significant development in Ranchi’s law enforcement, the Zonal Inspector General, Manoj Kaushik, has taken decisive action, suspending Argodah Police Station Chief Brahmdev Prasad with immediate effect. This suspension stems from serious allegations of assault on a youth who was reportedly held and beaten within the police station’s lock-up recently. Following the incident, the Senior Superintendent of Police had already suspended Sub-Inspector Diwakar Singh. A report concerning the Station Chief was subsequently forwarded to the Zonal IG, leading to this disciplinary measure. The action highlights the authorities’ commitment to addressing misconduct within the police force and ensuring accountability for alleged human rights violations.
