Satvir Singh Yadav, in charge of the Saukh police post along with other four police personnel have been sent to lines after the villagers staged a protest alleging that they detained and beatup two persons last night, CO (Sadar) R K Gautam said.
Digambar Singh and Harvir Singh, both hailing from Rajasthan, had arrived here to attend a wedding when Yadav along with his policemen detained them, RLD leader Deepak Chawdhary said.
When the villagers came to know about the two being in police custody, scores of them marched to the police post and demanded to release them after which the cops let the duo go.
They staged a protest after the duo told them that they were beaten up and showed their injury marks.
The protest stopped only after the Superintendent of Police took action against the accused police personnel.
A case has been also registered against the five and further investigations are on, police said.
