"The allegation was found to be wrong and a case of negligent driving was registered against van driver Azad Singh at Rajender Nagar Police station," said a senior police officer.
Pandey had alleged that he was standing outside Rajinder Nagar police station to enquire about party volunteers who were detained there after a protest at Ananad Parbat police station, when the van tried to mow him down.
Yesterday, on the complaint of the head constable a case was registered under various sections of IPC against protestors who had beaten him accusing that he was trying to run over them.
