Bihar: Saran SSP suspends Maker SHO for allegedly pointing pistol at public during flood relief distribution

Patna, Oct 4 ( UNI) Saran SSP has suspended Maker police station SHO Sangram Kumar Singh with immediate effect after a video purportedly showing him pointing his pistol towards members of the public during distribution of flood relief material surfaced on social media.
In an order, copy of which was circulated in media tonight, the Saran SSP said the video showed Singh, a police sub-inspector and SHO of Maker police station, pointing his pistol towards the public during the relief distribution.
