Bihar Cop misbehaves with siblings at restaurant, faces suspension
PTC News Desk: Station House Officer (SHO) Ram Chandra Mandal was suspended for allegedly misbehaving with a brother and sister at a restaurant in Katihar. A video of the incident has been doing rounds on social media in which the cop is seen engaging in an argument with the duo.
“A viral video of a CCTV has been received, in which on the date 24.10.2025, the Barsoi police station in-charge is seen arguing with some individuals sitting at the BR-11 restaurant located at Barsoi Ras Chowk. The investigation of this matter was conducted by the Deputy Superintendent of Police (Headquarters), Katihar,” the Bihar police stated in the press communiqué.
This incident occured yesterday night when we went for family dinner in barsoi bihar which falls under katihar dist. So we cant even take our sister for family dinner if its election time in bihar? @ECISVEEP @KatiharSp @katiharpolice @narendramodi @NitishKumar #BiharElection2025 pic.twitter.com/gqCPXrDnON — yash agrawal (@yash1524) October 25, 2025
It further said, “During the investigation, it was found that the Barsoi police station in-charge was using abusive language with individuals seated in the restaurant. This reflects negligence of duty and arbitrary behavior, and it is also tarnishing the image of the police. Taking cognizance of this matter, the Barsoi Station House Officer is suspended with immediate effect, and further action is being taken.”
The suspension order was issued on October 28 and shared through a press release posted by Katihar police on the social media platform X.
The officer is heard asking the man, “Kaun hai ye?” (Who is this sitting with you?), to which he calmly replies, “Behen hai meri.” (She is my sister).
The man responded politely, saying, “Aapne poocha toh maine bola behen hai.” (You asked, so I told you she is my sister). The situation soon escalated into a heated exchange, as another officer joined in, apparently siding with the SHO.
A show-cause notice has been issued to the SHO and probe is on.
