Land Row Near Deoria Police Post Turns Ugly: Elderly Man, Cop Clash Caught on Camera

Tension flared on Sunday afternoon near the Chakra Gosai police post under Mail police station area in Deoria after a land dispute escalated into a scuffle between police personnel and a local resident.

Dinanath Tiwari, a resident of Chakra Gosai village, has been involved in an ongoing dispute over a plot of land adjacent to the police post and the Panchayat building. On Sunday, he was reportedly getting labourers to clean the area near his house when the outpost inspector and a constable reached the spot and objected to the activity, citing issues related to ownership and demarcation.

The objection led to a heated argument, which soon turned into a physical altercation. Eyewitnesses said that during the scuffle, the elderly man grabbed the inspector’s collar and picked up a brick. Another policeman was seen snatching the brick from his hand. A video of the incident shows other personnel attempting to intervene and defuse the situation.

As the confrontation intensified, members of Tiwari’s family also reached the spot, leading to brief tension in the area.

On receiving information, additional police force from Mail police station arrived and pacified both sides. Station House Officer Arvind Kumar stated that the dispute arose due to a misunderstanding related to the collapse of a wall. He said the situation is now under control and no serious injuries have been reported.

The matter has been reported to senior officials for further review.
