Jaunpur Viral Video: A CCTV clip from a mobile showroom in Uttar Pradesh has shocked viewers and sparked anger online. The video allegedly shows two on-duty police constables stealing an iPhone 15 Pro Max worth Rs 1.62 lakh. Within hours, the footage spread across social media and became a widely discussed Jaunpur viral video.
The incident took place on Saturday (February 7) at around 2 pm. The location was a mobile showroom near the JC intersection in Jaunpur’s Line Bazar area. According to the shop owner Shivam, the two constables entered the store in uniform, appearing like regular customers.
They asked a female salesperson to show them several iPhone models. For nearly 20 minutes, they checked multiple devices and spoke with the staff. Before leaving, they claimed they did not like any phone and exited the showroom.
Soon after, Shivam realised that an iPhone 15 Pro Max was missing. Suspecting foul play, he reviewed the CCTV footage. The visuals allegedly showed the constables handling the phone shortly before leaving.

City SP Ayush Srivastava confirmed that the two accused constables (Dhananjay Bind and Mithilesh Yadav) were suspended with immediate effect. In addition, the department ordered an internal inquiry to examine the matter in detail. Officials stated that strict action would follow if the allegations are proven.
During the inquiry, Shivam shared another detail with investigators. He said that one of the suspended constables had visited the area frequently in the past. According to Shivam, the constable had studied at a digital library located above the showroom until about a year ago. This has raised questions about the officer’s familiarity with the premises.
