NEW DELHI: An Indian traffic constable has been suspended after he was caught in a video throwing a shoe at two bikers for not wearing a helmet.
The constable in question was captured on camera in a video uploaded by a Bengaluru-based YouTuber which went viral.
The video, uploaded on YouTube last week, shows two traffic police officials waiting on the side of the road. When they spot two bikers passing by without wearing helmets, one of the cops is seen taking off his shoe and aiming at the errant riders. The men try to duck but the shoe hits one of them anyway. They drive away soon after.
The video was uploaded by Bengaluru-based YouTube Rishabh Chatterjee who was driving behind the bikers. According to Mr Chatterjee, who shot it as part of a video blog on Bengaluru roads, the incident happened on BEL road on February 20 this year.
