Kerala policeman approaches HC to quash FIR

Kochi, June 20 (IANS) A Kerala policeman who alleged he was beaten by the daughter of a senior police officer on Wednesday filed a petition before the High Court to quash an FIR filed against him.

According to Gavaskar, driver of Additional Director General of Police Sudesh Kumar, the officer's wife and daughter Snigdha misbehaved with him after he turned up late to pick them up last week.
