In the police station, the two cops (One personnel Sharath who was familiar to Charan and the other not familiar to Charan) held Charan tightly against a cement pole where he was beaten-up severely by the Sub-Inspector Umesh Kumar until 3 lathis were completely shattered . However loud Charan screamed, it did not resist the cop from beating Charan. When queried as “Why do you strike me?” – they said how dare you to attend the court..
