NEW DELHI: The Delhi Police on Friday suspended three cops pending an inquiry after the Aam Aadmi Party uploaded a video of alleged police brutality in the national capital.

The video, which comes days after Aam Aadmi Party's dharna against the Delhi Police at Rail Bhavan, shows three 'cops' beating up a man with a stick. The cops are also seen taking out money from his wallet.

AAP said the video was shot on January 12.

"Delhi police is known to be brutal. Every now and then we hear of stories about Delhi police's brutality. Here is another such video. Not only does the video clearly show Delhi Police's inhuman behavior but also the urban legend of police extorting money is caught on camera," AAP said in its message with the video.

"This video was shot by a vigilante near Lal Quila," the party said and asked whether home minister Sushil Kumar Shinde would take action against the policemen involved.

Delhi police suspended the three constables — Jitendra, Arvid and Saurabh — seen in the video, pending an inquiry.

Any such incident will not be tolerated, Delhi Police commissioner BS Bassi said.

Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal led a protest earlier this week demanding suspension of SHOs concerned in three cases — the Danish tourist's gang-rape and the run-ins AAP ministers Somnath Bharti and Rekha Birla had with the police.

The protest had come to an abrupt end on January 21 after two police officers were sent on leave.
