ETAWAH, June 28 -- Uttar Pradesh Police on Friday transferred the probe into two cases related to the alleged caste-based assault and tonsuring of a non-Brahmin preacher and his aide from Etawah to Jhansi, citing "sensitivity" of the matter. The development comes amid an uneasy calm in Dandarpur village in the Bakewar area of Etawah, a day after a violent faceoff between a group of protesters and the police. Additional director general of police (Kanpur zone) Alok Singh on Friday ordered the transfer of the cases. "In view of the sensitivity of the incident related to Bakewar police station in Etawah, the investigations of cases are transferred by the Additional Director General of Police, Kanpur Zone, Kanpur to Jhansi Range, Jhansi with immediate effect," the police said in a post on X. The FIR lodged by the victims - religious preacher Mukut Mani Yadav and his assistant Sant Singh Yadav - was filed under BNS sections 115(2), 309(2), and 351(1)/352 (voluntarily causing hurt, robbery, and criminal intimidation). In contrast, a counter-FIR filed against the duo includes serious charges such as deliberate and malicious acts intended to outrage religious feelings, impersonation, cheating, and forgery under BNS sections 299, 318(4), 319(2), 336(3), 338, and 340(2)....
