Footage (above and below) from violence in North East Delhi that has been continuing for three days shows police personnel surrounding injured protestors and hitting them with batons.
Policemen can also be heard taunting them with slogans of “Azaadi,” which have become a staple at anti-CAA protests around the country. The injured, lying on the ground, can be heard being made to sing the national anthem.
