Case Study
Q4. Anmol is posted as the deputy superintendent of police in a rural area. The abduction and murder of a seven-year-old boy sparks widespread outrage in his village. A group of villagers gathers in front of the house of the suspect and is preparing to attack the family members of the absconding suspect. Anmol’s subordinate informs her about this impending act of violence. She rushes to the scene and encounters an angry mob abusing the suspect’s family including the female members.
