Tamil Nadu: Police under scanner after taking 5 Kurava men into custody without warrant

Police in Tamil Nadu have come under the scanner for taking 5 Kurava (Scheduled Tribe) men into custody without a warrant or informing them about the case.

Police in Tamil Nadu have come under the scanner for arresting 5 Kurava (Scheduled Tribe) men by entering their homes, allegedly beating them in front of their families and taking them into custody without informing about the case or lodging an FIR.

The matter came into light after a similar issue of police torture was depicted in the recently released film, Jai Bhim, which narrates the story of three Irula tribe men being taken into police custody and being tortured.
