SP MLA denies beating policemen

Chhatarpur, MP, Nov 17 (UNI) Samajwadi Party legislator Vikram Singh alias Nati Raja today claimed that he is being falsely implicated on the charge of beating up policemen due to political pressure in order to malign his career.

Mr Singh told UNI from Khajuraho that when he was going to Khajuraho for personal work on Wednesday, constable Rajendra Singh, who was drunk, stopped his vehicle and misbehaved with him, but claimed that he did not assault the constable.

Earlier, Mr Singh had been arrested yesterday on the charge of assaulting two policemen, looting magazine and disrupting government work. He was later released by the court on bail.
