He said a few persons who could not get the land on lease in the auction got an FIR registered against him for theft, assault and other offences in July 2021 and forcibly entered the fields. He also alleged he was taken into custody by then Vairoke police station SHO Sub-Inspector Ramesh Kumar, ASI Gurdeep Singh and other police personnel and was beaten up.
