Noida cops thrash man with cricket bat, video goes viral; 'This is why UP is No. 1 in custodial deaths' says Congress

Noida: In a viral video, two police brutally thrash a youth with a cricket bat inside a police station. The shocking incident is reportedly from Noida in Uttar Pradesh.

The undated video of the thrashing has gone viral on social media.

The video was purportedly shot inside Sector 142 police station in Noida.

The video shows two policemen, one of them in uniform, hitting a youngster with a bat. The victim can be heard screaming after he was hit by the police.
