WATCH: Assam man’s Facebook video of policeman snatching away bike keys goes viral

Boruah, a resident of Assam, livestreamed on Facebook the police and their misbehavior with him, when all he reportedly said was that they had no right to take away his vehicle’s documents unless there was a Sub-Inspector present. According to law, traffic policemen aren’t authorised to stop commuters and ask for their documents and must be done by an ASI rank officer or above.  And when he questioned them on this, the police’s response was to take away his bike keys!

Later Boruah took to Facebook to livestream another video explaining his reaction and why he felt he was justified in doing so. Reportedly, Boruah however, is now in police custody for 14 days and was charged under IPC 294 AND IPC 353 for using offensive words in public and for deterring a public servant from discharging his duty.
