Chhindwara officer faces inquiry for alleged extortion, accusations
Police in Chhindwara, India, have reassigned a police officer, Rajesh Sahu, after the emergence of two controversial audio recordings. The recordings allegedly involve accusations against a former legislator and requests for money. The audio recordings purportedly feature Sahu making accusations against former MLA Natthan Shah and requesting money under the guise of "puja-path." The officer has been reassigned, and an investigation has been launched by the Additional Superintendent of Police. Sahu claims the audio was fabricated using AI and denies the allegations. The former MLA has threatened protests if the investigation is delayed or mishandled.
