Home guards issued notice over protest

Hyderabad: Fifteen Home Guards who had held a protest when their colleague Mantri Ravinder had died by suicide on September 9 were issued notices under CRPc Section 41-A on Saturday.

Ravinder had died by suicide after he was humiliated by some police personnel when he had gone to inquire about his pending salaries. The Home Guards Welfare Association expressed anger over the police serving notices on the Home Guards who had stood up for the victim.
