In a video captured by onlookers, a BJP MLA's son was heard abusing a policeman for carrying out his duty. MLA Govind Karjol's son Arun Karjol abused a cop who questioned him as he parked his car in a no-parking zone in the Bagalkot district.
An FIR has been registered in the case under two sections and Arun Karjol was also summoned for questioning. As per reports, an audio clip was also sent for further investigation on the matter. This case of VVIP goondagiri had earlier come to notice when a case was registered against another MLA's son a few weeks ago due to his alleged misbehaviour.
The visuals of the incident from the Bagalkot district show an argument between the cop and senior MLA Govind Karjol's son Arun Karjol, in front of a white car. Some earlier reports also mentioned that Arun had allegedly called the cop a few days ago as well after he denied parking to Arun's friend.
Arun called the cop and asked him to come and meet so he could 'teach him a lesson'. "I will kick you with my boots and if you don't come, I will put my boot in your mouth," the brat said further. Then, Arun himself went and parked his car in the same spot. When the cop asked why he was doing this, the MLA's son started abusing him publicly.
The police are currently looking at forensic evidence of whether the audio matches with that of the MLA's son. In the audiotape, several vulgar words have been used while the video presents evidence of the altercation between the two. In the video, the cop keeps his cool and asks the self-proclaimed 'VIP' brat to behave in a proper manner.
