Action, if required, would be taken against the Sub-Inspector on the basis of the enquiry report.
“If found guilty, a case could also be registered against the sub-inspector,” the CO said.
On Friday night, the Sub-Inspector, who was deployed at Mohiuddinpur police post, went to Black Pepper Restaurant for dinner. He met a woman at the restaurant who had reportedly come to meet him to discuss a case.
The duo ordered food and waited for it to be served. After some time, the woman scolded the staff for delay in service which led to a brawl. The restaurant staff accused the woman of using abusive language.
Meanwhile the matter came into the notice of the owner who instructed his staff to close the doors of restaurant. He then entered into a fight with the sub-inspector as he was making a video of the brawl from his mobile. The owner allegedly slapped the cop while the staff snatched his mobile.
The agitated woman then started abusing the staff and smashed the crockery.
Police has recovered a CCTV recording of the entire incident.
When contacted, BJP Mahanagar president Mukesh Singhal expressed ignorance about the incident and said that he is in Lucknow.
