    A policeman slapped and beat an elderly man in Uttar Pradesh’s Kanpur after the old man failed to respond properly during a routine inquiry. The entire incident was caught on CCTV and has gone viral.

    The incident took place when police officers were visiting DJ operators in the area ahead of the upcoming Moharram procession. One of the DJ shops was closed, and an elderly man was sitting outside. The local outpost in-charge, DC Rajput, asked the man about the board displayed outside the shop.

    However, the elderly man, who has a hearing impairment, could not properly understand the question. When the officer repeated it, the man responded in a slightly louder tone, which allegedly angered the policeman. The officer then slapped and beat the man.

    The elderly man later said, “I have a hearing problem. The officer came today and asked whose shop it was. I gave an answer. He asked again, and I replied a bit loudly. Then he said, “You’re speaking in a loud voice,’ and started hitting me.”

    In its official response, the police department said, “The ACP has been assigned to investigate the matter. During the inquiry related to the DJ board by the outpost in-charge of Heeraman Purwa ahead of the Moharram procession, a communication gap occurred, which has now been resolved through mutual dialogue in the presence of senior officers. Both parties are satisfied.”
