The National Campaign Against Torture (NCAT) in its “India: Annual Report on Torture 2019” reported that a total of 1,731 persons died in custody during 2019, i.e. death of about five persons daily.[13] Out of which 1,606 deaths were reported in judicial custody and 125 deaths in police custody. Out of the 125 deaths, 93 persons (74.4%) died during police custody due to alleged torture/foul play while 24 persons (19.2%) died under suspicious circumstances in which police claimed they committed suicide (16 persons), illness (7 persons) and injuries (1 person) while the reasons for the custodial death of five (4%) persons were unknown.[14] Most of the victims of torture belong to the weaker sections of the society. The report also explicitly claims that the exact figures of the deaths due to torture are much more, as “in a number of cases, the police made all attempts to destroy incriminating evidence of torture by not conducting post-mortems or cremating the dead bodies of the torture victims in haste without conducting mandatory post-mortem examinations.“ #georgefloyd #police #policebrutality #policebrutalityawareness #jeyarajandfenix #jeyarajandbennix #georgefloydmomentinIndia #justice #justiceforjeyarajandfenix #LegalWires https://legal-wires.com/buzz/khaki-mafia-torture-impunity-and-indolence/ https://www.instagram.com/p/CCNoqH6gU8-/?igshid=15i0tx47s6g11

Warning: Video contains Graphic descriptions of violence, torture & sexual assault
Jeyaraj, 58, and his son Fenix, 38, were arrested for allegedly keeping their stores open past permitted hours. Both men were kept in police custody in Sathankulam Police Station in Thoothukudi for an entire night and died within hours of each other two days later. Reports say they were brutally tortured while in custody.
TimesOfIndia: “ No FIR has been registered against the police personnel who allegedly tortured the father-son duo for violating Covid curfew in Sathankulam, the government doctor who certified them as "fit" for custody, the magistrate who remanded them in custody and the jail personnel who admitted them with bleeding injuries.”
The Hindu identifies the accused as Inspector Sridhar, Sub-Inspectors Balakrishnan and Raghu Ganesh and other police constables attached to the Sattankulam police station.
The policemen who arrested the two men have been transferred, and the state government has awarded compensation of one million rupees (£10,716; $13,222) to their families. THIS IS NOT ENOUGH! TRANSFER IS NOT ENOUGH! THE CULPRITS NEED TO BE PUT BEHIND BARS FOR THIS HEINOUS CRIME! AND SO MUST EVERYONE WHO LET THIS HAPPEN
Please Raise Awareness about this. It saddens to say this happened in a place I’ve visited so many times, but this must be brought to light.
I’m not aware of any petitions taking place about this, so let me know if you do.

CHENNAI: Outrage at the death of a father-son duo in the custody of Indian police earlier this week mounted on Saturday, with thousands on social media comparing the incident to the death of George Floyd in the United States.
J Jayaraj, 59, and Bennicks Immanuel, 31, were subjected to a brutal thrashing, which resulted in rectal bleeding and eventual death, according to a letter to government officials written by Jayaraj’s wife J Selvarani. The letter, based on eyewitness testimony and reviewed by Reuters, seeks action against the police officers involved.

Police in Sathankulam, a town located 50 km (31 miles) south of the port city of Thoothukudi in southern Tamil Nadu state, said in a first information report (FIR) reviewed by Reuters that Jayaraj and Bennicks were picked up on Friday, June 19 for breaching coronavirus lockdown rules.
Bennicks died on Monday after complaining of breathlessness and Jayaraj died Tuesday, Chief Minister Edappadi Palaniswami, who oversees the police in the state, said in a statement on Wednesday. Two policemen involved in the incident had been suspended, he added.
“We will take action over this incident as per the law,” Palaniswami said.

Hundreds of thousands of tweets were sent out using the hashtag #JusticeforJayarajandBennix, that was among the top Twitter topics trending in India on Friday and among the top 30 trending globally, with celebrities and politicians condemning police action.
“The George Floyds of India are far too many,” tweeted Jignesh Mevani, a lawmaker in India’s western Gujarat state.
“Will Indians march on streets in thousands, like America?,” Mevani asked his nearly 750,000 Twitter followers, referring to events following the death in police custody on May 25 of George Floyd, a Black man.
Nearly 15 cases of custodial violence and torture were reported in every day on average, with 9 people dying in judicial or police custody every 24 hours, according to the latest annual report by India’s National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) for the year 2017/18.
The NHRC said in its report that some custodial deaths were reported after considerable delay or not reported at all, adding violence in custody was so rampant “that it has become almost routine”.
