Following the incident, the locals gathered in front of Kanhan Police Station and clashed with the cops over their failure in putting goons behind the bars.
Irked over the incident, Ramtek MLA Ashish Jaiswal later approached Kanhan and expressed his outrage over worsening law and order along with rising crimes in the Kanhan area. The video of MLA Jaiswal confronting Kanhan PI Kale had gone viral on social media. In the video clip, Jaiswal can be heard saying what the police are doing when the criminals are wielding swords and roaming on streets and terrorizing people.
