When the community stepped back, the 'heroes' of Dial 112 saved a father's life

Two police officers in Madhya Pradesh acted heroically to save a 70-year-old man attacked by his intoxicated son.

In a shocking incident in Ajaygarh, Panna district, Madhya Pradesh, two police officers performed an act of bravery by saving a 70-year-old man, Kedar Nath Dhuriya, from death after he was brutally attacked by his own son under the influence of alcohol. The son hit his father on the head with a stone, causing severe injuries, while bystanders refrained from helping due to the aggressive behavior exhibited by the assailant.

The distressing scene created heightened tensions, leaving the elderly man in a critical state as potential helpers feared retaliation. Fortunately, the Dial 112 emergency response team arrived without delay, consisting of constable Rajkaran Sahu and pilot Sandeep Rajak. Understanding the urgency of the situation, they promptly engaged in rescue operations, carefully transporting the injured man to a vehicle.

Thanks to their quick actions and the prompt medical attention received at the Ajaygarh hospital, Kedar Nath was able to receive the necessary treatment, ultimately averting a possible tragedy. This incident highlights the challenges faced by law enforcement in responding to domestic violence situations and the critical role that timely intervention plays in saving lives.
