An Army jawan has alleged he was assaulted at a police station in Greater Noida, but the Gautam Buddh Nagar police refuting the charges as "absolutely false".
The district police said it suspected the jawan had used "forged documents" to get into the Army and it would soon send a report to the defence force to get his certificates verified.
Vishnu Bhati, posted in Jammu & Kashmir, had returned home for holidays and approached the Rabupura police station on Monday with a complaint that one of his relatives fraudulently used his brother's education documents to get selected in the Army, officials said.
“He alleged that his complaint was not registered and instead he was roughed by the policemen and made to stay at the police station for a long time,” an official said.
The police, however, claimed that Bhati had himself given his brother's certificates to a son of his relative to “facilitate” his selection in the Army.
