Two enter police station in drunken state, held

PATNA: Two drunk people allegedly entered Karjain police station in Supaul district on Thursday and entered into a scuffle with police personnel. The two were somehow overpowered by four police personnel and arrested.

SHO of Karjain police station Sanjeev Kumar said the arrested persons were identified as Rupak Singh (23) and Raju Kumar Singh (31). He said Rupak and Raju hail from Supaul and Saharsa districts, respectively.

The SHO said a chowkidar, Sadanand Paswan, and a constable, Sanjeet Kumar, were injured in the scuffle.

“Before reaching the police station, Rupak had called me up alleging that someone had thrashed him at Dumri chowk. I had asked him to remain there. A patrolling vehicle reached there immediately as it was nearby, but they didn’t find him. Rupak rang again after which he was asked to come to the police station,” Kumar said.

The SHO Kumar said that the duo created ruckus at the police station when police tried to perform breathalyser tests on them.
