The man, identified as Pandey ji, is seen trying to protect himself from the officers’ repeated strikes with a baton, while passersby casually look on without intervening. The incident has caused shock and outrage, with many questioning the actions of the police officers and the lack of empathy shown by those who witnessed the attack.

According to ANI journalist Mukesh Singh, who posted the video on Twitter, Pandey ji is a teacher at a private school in Kaimur and his only mistake was falling off his bicycle. Singh expressed his disbelief and disappointment that a 70-year-old man could be treated in such a violent and inhumane manner, and called on the Bihar police to take action and hold the officers accountable.
The video has sparked widespread condemnation and has brought negative attention to the police force in India. Many have pointed out that incidents like these are responsible for the bad reputation of the police and have called for stricter measures to be put in place to prevent such abuse of power. The Bihar police have yet to take any action on the incident, and more details about the matter are yet to be revealed.
The violence on elderly man is deeply concerning and it is outrageous that police officers, who are supposed to protect and serve the public, could act with such cruelty and disregard for human life. It is imperative that the Bihar police conduct a thorough investigation and take appropriate action to ensure that those responsible are held accountable for their actions. This incident serves as a reminder of the importance of holding the police accountable and the need to ensure that they act in a fair, just and humane manner.
