KOZHIKODE: IN a shocking incident, five people, including a woman and child, who approached Chevayur police station to file a complaint were allegedly beaten up by police personnel on Sunday.

According to the complainants, they had reached the station to file a complaint against the misbehaviour of a bus conductor who had asked the woman and child to get down from the bus after a ruckus over change.

When the woman, along with a few other passengers reached the police station, the personnel there, instead of accepting their complaint, misbehaved with and beat them up, the complainants alleged.
