Bijnor Police Scandal: Two Constables Suspended Over Viral Videos
In a significant development from Bijnor district, a head constable and a woman constable posted at a local police station have been suspended following the emergence of several videos that purportedly show them in a compromising position. The videos, which surfaced online recently, have triggered a major controversy and led to swift disciplinary action by the police authorities.
Departmental Inquiry Ordered by SP Abhishek Jha
Taking serious cognisance of the matter, Superintendent of Police Abhishek Jha ordered a comprehensive departmental inquiry into the incident on Tuesday. Officials confirmed that the videos were recorded inside a private residence and subsequently circulated widely across various social media platforms, causing embarrassment to the police department.
SP Jha stated that both police personnel have been placed under immediate suspension on charges of indiscipline, misconduct, and tarnishing the public image of the police force. The suspension order underscores the department's zero-tolerance policy toward behavior that compromises professional integrity.
Details of the Viral Videos and Investigation
According to sources familiar with the investigation, the woman constable was seen wearing her uniform in one of the videos, while in others she appeared in civilian attire. The head constable involved in the incident is reportedly married, adding another layer of complexity to the case.
Preliminary investigations suggest that the videos were recorded with mutual consent between the two individuals. However, the circulation of these private recordings on social media has raised serious questions about privacy violations and ethical conduct within the police force.
The departmental inquiry will examine all aspects of the incident, including the circumstances under which the videos were recorded, how they were leaked online, and whether any additional violations of police protocols occurred. Officials have emphasized that appropriate disciplinary measures will be taken based on the findings of the investigation.
This incident has sparked discussions about professional conduct and accountability within law enforcement agencies, highlighting the need for stricter adherence to ethical standards to maintain public trust.
