Lalit Rajput (L), a 38-year-old man, died after allegedly being thrown off a building terrace by police.
He said Rajput and his friends were playing cards but were not gambling. Deputy commissioner of police (City) Ravindra Kumar said the two accused constables had been suspended. The two constables, Shubham Rathi and Akash Verma, arrived after receiving information about gambling and allegedly got into a scuffle with Rajput before throwing him off the terrace, his father alleged. A large crowd gathered after the incident, prompting the deployment of personnel from several police stations amid public anger. Police sent the body for postmortem, after which the last rites were performed.
The incident took place around midnight on Friday in Rawli, where Lalit Rajput was playing cards with his friends on the terrace of a building’s second floor, his father, Chandan Rajput, said.
