The police headquarters (PHQ) has already suspended ASI Mohan Singh and sent to lines three constables for negligent in taking Akbar to hospital for treatment. ASI Mohan was leading the team that responded to a call to the police control room from a villager who informed about the lynching of Akbar by cow vigilantes.
