Mumbai: Shiv Sena (UBT) Workers Protest Over Assault On Ex-Corporator Vasant Nakashe By Dharavi Police Officer; VIDEO

Mumbai: The Shiv Sena (UBT) started an agitation in front of Dharavi police station on Saturday afternoon demanding the suspension of inspector Harshal Araspure. The protest is a sequel to the alleged slapping of an ex-corporator of the Shiv Sena (UBT) Vasant Nakashe (51).

Nakashe told the FPJ that he had gone to the police station to settle a "small matter" involving one of his party workers. "I met the senior inspector Raju Bidkar and amicably settled the matter. While I was coming out of the police station inspector Araspure asked me why I was interfering. I told him that I was only carrying out my duty as a public representative. Since he had raised his voice I told him to lower it and talk to me. All of a sudden he slapped me tightly. Is this how people's representatives are to be treated?"
