The cops, at about 12.05 am of Monday, spotted the accused Surendra Banait and his two accomplices suspiciously loitering near a Masjid in Besa village. Head Constable Tambde and other cops asked Banait and others to leave the place. The directive of the cops infuriated the accused Surendra Banait who thundered that I am Sarpanch of Besa.
