A chilling case of police brutality has emerged from Theni district in Tamil Nadu. CCTV footage from the Devadhanapatti police station shows an auto driver named Ramesh being mercilessly beaten by Inspector Abudhalha, Special Sub-Inspector Suyasambu, and other officers on January 14, during the Pongal festival. The video, leaked by a lawyer on social media, has gone viral—triggering mass outrage.
This incident follows closely on the heels of another custodial violence case in Sivaganga, where a youth named Ajithkumar died after being beaten by the special task force. Activists and civil rights groups are now demanding swift legal action and accountability. The Theni SP has ordered an inquiry and transferred the officers involved to the Armed Reserve, but public anger continues to mount.
