“After the meeting, Mr. Suresh spoke disrespectfully and accused me of accepting bribes. Though I tried to reason with him stating that it was just a misunderstanding, he was in no mood to listen,” Mr. Srinivas has said in his complaint. He added that he was humiliated and embarrassed because of MP’s public remarks.
Reacting to the allegations, Mr. Suresh said he called a meeting with the police officials following complaints from the public regarding law and order issue. “I discussed with the police officers on possible action to curb growing mugging and other criminal activities in general. I have not humiliated anyone. I heard the PSI has filed a complaint. Let the police officials conduct a detailed probe and I am ready to face the investigations,” he said.
