Proactive Admn continues its drive against crime, resorts to mild force on protestors

Jamshedpur: The district administration continued its special drive against crime in the city on the second day Saturday. 3 JCBs were employed to demolish two alleged encroached shops in Uliyan Kadma.

According to the police sources, the drive has been launched to contain crime in the city and send a strict message to those who violated law and order.

Two persons named as accused in a case were also arrested from the area.

Shaukeet Singh is being treated at Tata Main Hospital.

On the statement of the mother of the injured, a case was registered against Rajkumar Singh, Raju Singh, Akhilesh Singh, Lalu Singh and others by the Bistupur police.

All the accused in this case were absconding.

Meanwhile, on Thursday, a video related to the incident was released on social media by one accused of the case named as Aman Mishra.

In the said video, he, allegedly, openly challenged the district administration, claiming that no action could be taken against him even after the incident. .

After this, the administration swung into action and on Friday itself, it demolished a shop of Rajkumar Singh located near Kadma New Ranikudar.

Taking action again today, two shops of Raju Singh and Akhilesh Singh were demolished in Uliyan in Kadma.
