The statement read: "Accused Birpal alias Neelu Yadav, currently imprisoned in the district jail under the Gangster Act of Kotwali police station Kannauj, was brought to the Medical College Tirwa for a checkup due to sudden ill health. During this time, advocate Rakesh Tiwari, along with his companions, forcibly tried to meet the accused. However, the City Area Officer and Inspector in charge informed them that an accused in judicial custody cannot be met without court permission. Despite this, they continued pressuring to meet him, causing a ruckus and were eventually removed from the hospital premises.”
As the Kannauj viral video spread, social media users took to the comment section to share their opinions. One user wrote, “Wakeel log agar court ke chakkar me jo fasa denge to kabootar ki tarah chakkar lagate najar aayenge police wale.”
Another commented, “Imagine what would have happened if it were a common man.” A third user added, “Such behaviour of a police officer towards an advocate is not justified and acceptable. He should be sent for re-training.”
With the Kannauj viral video gaining attention, the incident has sparked discussions on law enforcement practices and the rights of legal professionals.
