Gonda: The Katra Bazar police station is once again in the spotlight, this time due to a viral video showing a female constable creating a commotion. The incident occurred when the constable, upset about being assigned night bank duty, refused to perform her duties within the station premises, alleging that the assignments were being made arbitrarily.
The incident took place after 7 PM last Tuesday. The constable, who resides in a rented house in the town, was stressed about her night duty. She was seen crying and threatening to take her own life, claiming that she was being harassed with such duty assignments. Upon learning about the situation, fellow officers arrived at the scene, escorted her into a police vehicle, and brought her back to the station.
At the station, Circle Officer (CO) Nitya Goswami and Station House Officer (SHO) Sanjay Gupta tried to calm her down, but she continued to express her displeasure over the way duties were being assigned. The SHO stated that she had been assigned bank duty, but she did not report for it, leading to the commotion. The incident is currently under investigation, and the CO has been informed.
