This incident, like many others, brings to fore the issue of how the police lack sensitivity in dealing with crimes. CNN-IBN reports, an enquiry was ordered into the incident after human rights activists saw the video and protested the treatment meted out to the boy. According to India Today , the Vetapelam SI was suspended after the incident was reported.
