Puducherry, Nov 27 (UNI) Tension prevailed at the Government General Hospital here today as a group of people picketed the hospital premises and later, the office of the Superintendent of Police (North).

The agitation was to exert pressure on the administration to initiate action against police personnel who allegedly beat up a person with criminal record.

S Viji of Samipillaithottam in Lawspet here was picked up by the police today for interrogation and allegedly beaten up before being released.

Viji later got himself admitted to the hospital where his relatives and people from Samipillaithottam protested the 'police atrocities.' Senior police officals then held reconcilatory talks with the agitators.
