Baripada: An Assistant Sub-Inspector of Police has been suspended in connection with the incident of a man being administered livestock injections by a quack in Mayurbhanj district.
A man had on Sunday administered injections meant for cattle to one Srikanta Mahanta of Mahuladiha after posing as a doctor of Thakurmunda CHC. A complaint in this regard had been lodged at Mahuldiha Police Station.
However, ASI Pabitra Mohan Rout of Mahuldiha Police Station took the matter lightly. He had detained the accused Biswanath Behera but later released him. Subsequently, Behera committed another such misdeed at Goudia Bahali village.
Following media reports, Mayurbhanj SP Khilari Rishikesh Dnyandeo took the matter seriously and suspended ASI Rout for negligence in duty.
