Four Sahibabad Policemen Suspended After Video Shows Partying at History-Sheeter’s Birthday

A departmental probe is reviewing CCTV alongside viral clips to determine misconduct.

Overview

  • DCP Nimish Patil ordered the suspension of outpost in-charge Ashish Jadaun and constables Amit, Yogesh and Gyanendra pending a departmental inquiry.
  • The incident occurred at Rose Bar in Sahibabad during a late-night celebration for Irshad Malik, whom police describe as a history-sheeter with cases including cow slaughter and Arms Act offences.
  • Social media clips and bar CCTV purportedly show policemen drinking and dancing with bar dancers during the party that ran from around midnight to about 2:30 am.
  • ACP Shweta Yadav said officers reopened the closed bar to recover footage, and initial findings point to a prima facie case of dereliction of duty.
  • Investigators say three constables are clearly visible in the footage while the sub-inspector is not, with additional cameras being checked to verify details.
