Almost two years ago, in June of 2020, as the world was protesting the unlawful death of George Floyd caused by a cop who stepped on his neck for over 9 minutes, India was fighting its own case of police brutality. We brought that case to you two years ago and since then, new, harrowing developments in the case have led us to bring to you an update episode. This episode goes to the countless people who are hurt or lose their life at the hands of those meant to protect them. This episode goes to cases that never got a protest, people that were turned into mere statistics of violence at the hands of the police. This episode goes to Jayaraj and Bennicks and their family that still mourns their loss today. This is their story. | Intro by ghostfml
