Viral video: Viral videos of Uttar Pradesh cops are swirling in headlines lately and making a lot of noise over the internet. Just when this scandal of a policeman in Agra was being digested by the public, another shocking video has come out, involving a UP police constable and an alleged extramarital affair.
UP Constable Naresh Kumar Caught in Compromising Position
The new video shared by user Sachin Gupta on August 16 has quickly come to the fore, viewing thousands and drawing a number of reactions. The video shows a UP police constable, Naresh Kumar, in a compromising position with a woman in Amroha district. The woman’s husband, as alleged in the caption, found the constable in a private setting with his wife and then locked the officer in that room. In the video, the husband can be seen angrily shouting that he will have the constable fired, while he continues to assault his wife physically. The video has caught the heated confrontation, wherein husband’s frustration is also clearly marked as he accuses wife and the constable of ruining his life.
Similar Scandal in Agra
Just be the latest in the series of controversial videos involving some of the Uttar Pradesh police officers. Another case regarding husband-wife dispute in Agra has already created a similar case. The pattern of scandalous behavior among some officers is causing concern and attracting widespread criticism online.
The video has sent ripples in terms of comments among online users. A number of reactions include disbelief and frustration. “Too much what happened to the policemen?,” the user is quoted as saying, which proves the general apparent misconduct. Yet another said, “It is not the times but the people who are bad,” which suggests a problem more on the behavior of people than on societal conditions.
Growing Concern Over Police Misconduct and Corruption in Uttar Pradesh
The UP police has finally reacted to the incident by suspending Constable Naresh Kumar, loud testimony to the fact of acting on misconduct clouding the police’s otherwise spotless record. More than anything else, however, it points out the situation: closer monitoring within a system of accountability that can forestall scandals from denting public trust.
And this one video spreads and becomes part of a wider discussion on the integrity of the police force and professional standards. The rapid spreading of such footage points to the fact that citizens become impatient with the rate of corruption and lawlessness emerging from those in charge of maintaining law and order.
