The victim came home on November 2 and was waiting for a bus at Santabayalu when the police constable there were already making the people download the state-promoted Disha women safety app on their mobiles.

Syed was also asked to download the app. In the process, a constable wrote the OTP sent in the process.

Enraged over these remarks, the constables asked him if he was not able to see their uniform. They asked him to come to the police station and said that they would show their identity cards there.

Venting their anger over the soldier, they caught Alimullah by the collar and he fell down. Then another constable hit him with his leg while another hit him over the cheek.

Soon the onlookers interfered and asked the constables to stop attacking the soldier. "Just because he asked for your ID cards, why would you attack him," they asked.  

At the same time, they also asked the constables why should men be asked to download the Disha app.

During this moment, two other police reached the place and all the four police personnel tried to take the solider to the station in an auto but he objected to the move.

Later, the police took his identity card and left the place.

Then the victim approached Anakapalle SP Muralikrishna and briefed him about the incident following which they were punished.
