Mangaluru, Jul 31: A clash between a lawyer and a police inspector at Mangaluru East (Kadri) Police Station led to a protest in the station premises by a group of lawyers in the city on Friday afternoon.
A group of lawyers, who gathered in front of the police station, demanded immediate action against Inspector Nagaraj, who allegedly assaulted advocate Uttam Rai earlier in the day.
According to Mr Rai, the inspector used abusive words against him and pushed him out when he had accompanied one of his clients to the station.
He said that his client was afraid of speaking to the inspector alone and the former had requested him to accompany him. But the reported objected and insisted that he would speak to the person alone.
This led to a clash between lawyer and the inspector. The lawyer claimed that the police abused him and pushed him out of the station. On the other hand the inspector too accused the advocate of hitting him. More details to follow.
