Engineer Beaten to Death: Family Accuses Bhopal Police of Custodial Murder
A wave of outrage has swept Bhopal after the alleged custodial death of 22-year-old engineering graduate Udit, who was reportedly beaten to death by police officers. According to his family, Udit was taken into custody without a warrant and subjected to brutal assault. His father, devastated, said, “He was killed like an animal. They didn’t even treat him like a human being.” Udit had recently completed his engineering degree and was preparing for job interviews. The post-mortem report is awaited, but initial visuals and eyewitness accounts suggest severe physical trauma. Civil rights activists and opposition leaders have called for a high-level probe, demanding accountability from the Madhya Pradesh police. The incident has reignited debates on police brutality and the urgent need for reform. A judicial inquiry has been ordered, but Udit’s family says justice will remain incomplete unless the officers involved are arrested and punished.
