NEW DELHI - Indian Police officer has threatened to cut the tongues of the abusive politicians and members of Assemblies.
A police inspector in Andhra Pradesh threatened to cut tongues of elected representatives if they spoke in a manner hurting the morale of the force, targeting a ruling TDP MP, who hit back daring him and lodging a complaint.
"We have so far observed restraint. Henceforth, if anybody talks against the police beyond the limits we will not tolerate. We will cut their tongues. Be careful," Inspector Madhav of Kadiri in Anantapuramu district warned at a press conference Friday.
In a sharp reaction, MP J C Diwakar Reddy dared the inspector to tell where should he come to get his tongue cut. He later filed a complaint against the inspector but no FIR has been registered so far, according to Tadipatri Sub-Divisional Police Officer Vijaya Kumar.
