Is it a crime to perform Lakshmi Puja at your own shop on Diwali night? Asking "who are you?" is fair. Shouting, abusive language, threats and snatching phone for recording is not.

@sirmetabully@Cbe_Dist_Police@CMOTamilnadu@CollectorCbe@tnpoliceoffl He changed his tone only after i started taking video ! Before that he abused me as entha miyuruku inge nikure nee !! Nalile irundhu kadaiya open pannada madri pannruven pakuriya !! After this statement only i started taking the video, you can clearly see that on the cctv video
@Rana_says25@Cbe_Dist_Police@CMOTamilnadu@CollectorCbe@tnpoliceoffl No, we just did a Pooja waited till the lamp gets off, and once it got off, we closed our shop and where about to leave at the last moment when we were about to leave, the cops came and started all the scene !
@MuhammedSabir_I@Cbe_Dist_Police@CMOTamilnadu@CollectorCbe@tnpoliceoffl If possible, please check the CCTV camera which I have attached in that tweet. It clearly shows that I was very politely answering him, his questions, after his threats, I took my phone and started recording. And then he started changing his statements.
@MuhammedSabir_I@Cbe_Dist_Police@CMOTamilnadu@CollectorCbe@tnpoliceoffl Sir even after clearly, saying him that we just finished a Puja and we are leaving to our home. It was the simple answer I gave. he was the one who treated us in a very bad manner and threatened us saying that Iโll see you. How would you open your shop from tomorrow?
I recovered the video, and the CCTV also has it. I respect the police's duty to ask questions. But the way he behaved and talked to us is not acceptable. When a police officer himself behaves like a rowdy, how safe is a common citizen?
Once he thought the proof was gone, he changed his tune. He shouted again, denied doing anything wrong and told us to get lost. When I said I'd complain to the Commissioner, he said "do whatever you want, I'll see you there."
