Senior Superintendent of Police Ruchivardhan Mishra told PTI Khan was arrested recently on the orders of a local court in connection with a case of land purchase using bogus documents.

When Khan's mobile phone was examined, a video of him torturing a 14-year-old boy and forcing him to clean the toilet seat by tongue was found, she said.

Mishra said, "Khan and his associates were pressuring the minor to give a false statement to police that two other minor boys (both brothers) were involved in the case of his son's stabbing two months ago."

The police inquiry, however, found these boys had nothing to do with the stabbing.

The SSP said four persons have been arrested in the stabbing case and booked under IPC Section 307 (attempt to murder).

She said Khan was trying to falsely implicate the two minor boys two weeks after the FIR was filed. It is suspected that Khan intended to extort money from the father of these boys.(PTI)
