A woman police officer was thrashed by a group of women at Bidhannagar (north) police station on Saturday evening, shortly after police detained a group of youths from Calcutta Book Fair. A video footage emerged in the evening where the officer in uniform can be seen being scratched on the face, dragged by the hair, pushed and showered with punches and blows by a group of women. A separate case regarding the assault on the officer will be drawn up, the police said.
