Delhi Violence| Video Of Attack On Police Team Surfaces; Constable Ratan Lal Killed While Saving DCP: Sources

05 Mar, 2020 08:54 PM

    A video of a mob surrounding and attacking policemen in Delhi's Chand Bagh area has surfaced online.


    The video was recorded on 24 February, day 2 of the Delhi violence.


    The mob can be seen cornering the policemen and attacking them with sticks and stones.


    Some of the policemen, in apparent anticipation of the much bigger crowd, jump over the road divider and run to the relative safety of the other side of the road where the mob had not yet reached. They take cover behind some trees as bricks and stones rain around them.



    Senior police officers Amit Sharma and Anuj Sharma, and head constable Ratan Lal cannot be seen in the video but they were reportedly present in the area. Ratan Lal was killed on the same day.


    In another video, an injured senior officer Amit Sharma is seeing being escorted by a ring of policemen on a street as protesters throw stones at them. Then his colleague Anuj Sharma takes him to a house for safety.


    According to some reports, this group of policemen had gone to Chand Bagh to hold talks with people protesting against the Citizenship (Amendment) Act or CAA. The situation, however, went out of control and the policemen found themselves outnumbered by the protesters.


    In the video, some women are seen throwing stones at the policemen.
