ವರಮಹಾಲಕ್ಷ್ಮಿ ಪೂಜೆಗೆ ಹೋಗಿದ್ದಾಗ ಚಿನ್ನ ಕಳವು: ವಿಚಾರಣೆ ನೆಪದಲ್ಲಿ ಮಹಿಳೆಗೆ ಕರೆಂಟ್ ಶಾಕ್ ನೀಡಿದ ಪೊಲೀಸ್ರು

According to a report by TV9 Kannada, a serious allegation of police misconduct has emerged in the Shiggaon taluk of Haveri district, Karnataka. The incident reportedly began following the theft of approximately 45 grams of gold jewelry from a residence in Shidlapura village during a Varamahalakshmi puja celebration. The homeowners discovered the theft after neighbors who had attended the ceremony had already departed.

Following the filing of a complaint, local police reportedly detained a woman for questioning regarding the missing valuables. However, the woman has since alleged that officers subjected her to electric shocks during the interrogation process in an attempt to extract a confession or information. The claim has sparked concern regarding the methods employed during the investigation of the theft.

As of now, there has been no official statement from the Haveri district police department regarding the specific allegations of custodial mistreatment. The investigation into the initial gold theft remains ongoing, and the accusations of police brutality have brought additional scrutiny to the handling of the case. Further developments are expected as local authorities address the claims made by the woman.
