Additional Superintendent of Police confirmed that the officer in question, identified as inspector Shyam Singh, hails from Mainpuri district and is stationed in Auraiya.

While police officers are entrusted with upholding law and order, instances like these raise concerns about accountability within the force. The indiscriminate use of firearms by an officer in uniform not only undermines public trust but also highlights the need for stringent disciplinary measures.
