Nagpur: A day after Latif Babu, a resident of Tajbag had died of heart attack, locals have accused Zone 4 cops of police brutality and clamoured for action against them. However, police have rubbished the claims of locals and specified that Latif Babu suffered heart attack leading to his death.
Locals have alleged that, on the directions of Tajbag Officer bearers, cops harassed Latif Babu in Abu Khan case, followed which he succumbed to police brutality. However, cops said Latif was just summoned at Sakkardara Police Station for enquiry three days. During the same, he got to know that Abu gave cops his name.
According to senior police sources, Latif Babu got to know that Abu alias Feroz Khan had disclosed to cops that the latter had taken Rs 1 lakh from him while on the run. This has perhaps, made him anxious and led to heart attack.
