Lucknow, the capital of Uttar Pradesh, is known for its Tehzeeb, Nawabi style and smile. The mood here is such that the city is identified with jummals like ‘Smile, you in Lucknow’. But in this Nawabi city, such a shameful incident has happened, which has not only embarrassed humanity, but has also shocked the profession called the keepers of the law. Actually, this case is related to Shivpuri Jalalpur area of Para police station area of Lucknow. The victim lawyer Dhirsen Bhatt has filed a criminal complaint with the police, alleging that he was not only physically tortured by his own client on the pretext of Holi, but also inhuman and disgusting movements.
Drink alcohol after emotional blackmail
The incident is on the night of 18 March. Dhirsen Bhatt says that his client Vinod Kumar, who is a resident of Devpur, refused to meet on Holi first. But later he himself called him home around 9 pm. When the lawyers reached there, they were seated in the outside room and two boxes of country liquor were put in front. The lawyer refused to drink alcohol, but Vinod forced him to drink alcohol emotionally.
Attack with shovel for protesting
When advocate Dhirsen saw that the accused had put a name plate of his name outside his house, he opposed it. This protest became the beginning of his suffering. Vinod and his son both started beating the lawyer. Then a person running an electronics shop in the neighborhood also reached there and attacked the lawyer with a shovel. However, the lawyer somehow stopped the shovel’s war with his hand, causing his hand to explode badly. After this, the attackers again attacked him with the same shovel and abused and committed inhuman acts-forcibly fed in Gilas.
Gold chain looted and tried to kill
Not only this, according to the lawyer, the accused also broke their janeu and looted a gold chain from the neck. When he did not fill his mind, he lifted the stick and stabbed the lawyer’s stomach. The entire incident appears to be a well -planned conspiracy, including a client, his son, neighboring shopkeeper and another person.
People reached out on screams, survived life
Hearing the shouts of the lawyer, other people of the locality reached there and somehow he was saved from the clutches of the attackers. The injured lawyer immediately informed the nearest police post, but no immediate action was taken by the police. After this, he went to Para police station and lodged a written complaint.
Police now filed case, investigation started
Due to lack of action for a long time, the matter would remain suppressed, but when this issue came up on the media and social platforms, the police took cognizance and the case has been registered in the case. Para police station says that the allegations are being investigated and the accused will be arrested soon.
Questions arise …
This incident has raised the question that when a lawyer, who himself is the patron of law, can be done with such a cruelty, then what is the guarantee of safety of common citizens? Also, it is also a matter of thinking that if the police do not take immediate action despite the complaint of the lawyer, then who should expect justice? This entire incident puts a big question mark on the law and order situation and social decline in a city like Lucknow. If such scenes are revealed in this city, known in the name of humanity, tehzeeb and trust, then perhaps she has started losing the identity of “smiling …”.
