While the lawyers have squarely blamed police for provocation and ill-treatment, police officers strongly refuted the charge and produced CCTV footage clearly showing unprovoked attack on police constable by lawyers who pounced upon him.
Amidst claims and counter-claims, the District Bar Association has decided to go on indefinite strike from Monday demanding stern action against erring police personnel. According to DBA, their proposed stir has been supported by HCBA, Vidarbha Lady Lawyers Association, executive members of Bar Council and Adhivakta Parishad denouncing police for granting humiliating treatment to advocates in the name of security.
