This man was angry with the police action in the case of cheating on his wife and he took this step in protest against it.

What is the whole matter?

The incident took place in Pasgwan police station area of ​​Lakhimpur Kheri. A person named Manoj Kumar, who lives here, alleges that money was fraudulently withdrawn from his wife’s bank account. He had complained about this matter to the police, but he alleges that the police was not taking any concrete action in this matter.

When he did not get justice despite all his efforts, he adopted this unique and dangerous method of drawing the attention of the authorities. On Tuesday morning, he climbed a tall mobile tower in the village and started shouting from there demanding action.

High-voltage drama lasted for hours

Top police officials even tried to convince him over phone. After a long period of coaxing and concrete assurances of action, he finally agreed to get down.

This incident has once again raised the question as to why the common man is forced to take such deadly steps to convey his views to the system.
