 A common man who sold fruits in a cart has suffered brutal beatings at the hand of a policeman here in Janakpur. 30-year-old Birendra Kumar Das from Debpura Rupaitha VDC-4 in Dhanusha was slapped so hard by policeman Binod Yadav that his eardrum ruptured. 


Das said that while selling mangoes on the side of the road leading to Janaki Mandir and Janakchowk on Friday evening, police constable Yadav suddenly hit him in the face saying, "Why are you here?" He said that blood came from his ear and he was in great pain when the police hit him on the eyebrow. Dr. According to Das, Ashok Gupta said that the ear mesh was broken. These vendors are in poor financial condition, have been running their families on carts. He told Annapurna that he did not have money for ear treatment and was worried about how to treat it. Das has complained that he was not allowed to enter the police office to lodge a complaint against Yadav. Police have requested to send the injured slave to the post while trying to understand.
