Man Pees on a Tribal in MP, Booked Under NSA When Video Went Viral

Bhopal: A man named Pravesh Shukla was arrested by Madhya Pradesh police in the wee hours of Wednesday on charges of urinating on a tribal. His inhuman act in Sidhi district was caught on camera and the video clip became viral on social media. In a viral video, Shukla was smoking a cigarette while urinating on a tribal man sitting on the ground.

Madhya Pradesh CM Shivraj Singh Chouhan ordered to register a case under the stringent National Security Act (NSA) against him.

A case has been registered against him under the National Security Act, SC/ST Act, and other sections of the Indian Penal Code.

Interestingly the victim, 36-year-old Dasmat Ravat from Karaundi, claimed before the police that the viral video was a fake. He also prepared an affidavit regarding it.

But it was hinted from an investigation that he had prepared the affidavit under duress.

Shukla’s alleged links with the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is being made a political issue by the opposition Congress.

Photos of the accused with BJP MLAs have surfaced on social media. But the MLAs have denied any association with the accused.
