Kerala: Man booked for overspeeding on a bicycle

A man on a bicycle was booked for overspeeding in Kerala. According to a media report, the man was pulled over by the highway police in Kumbala and was asked to pay a fine of Rs. 2,000. 

Kasim, who is reportedly a migrant worker, has a daily income of Rs. 400. When he told the police that he did not have the money to pay the fine, they gave him a challan of Rs. 500. The cops allegedly flattened his bicycle's tyres as well. The challan also mentioned a vehicle registration number which belonged to a scooter owned by another person.

The victim shared his ordeal on social media through a video, which soon went viral. The District Police Chief took note of the incident and ordered a probe into it. Reports suggest that a sub-inspector has been found guilty and could face further action.
