It might be hard to believe but the city police seem to care about how criminals look.
Irked by the unkempt appearance of a history-sheeter, N Shashikumar, DCP (North), brought in a barber to trim the miscreant’s hair at a parade on Sunday.
The incident happened at BEL ground in Jalahalli, where Shashikumar had rounded-up miscreants on Sunday in view of the Lok Sabha polls.
At the parade, habitual offenders and those involved in illegal activities were warned against disturbing law and order. As many as 700 history-sheeters had gathered at the BEL ground.
Ten transgenders roaming around Hebbal flyover were instructed by the city police to desist from indulging in any illegal activities near the flyover.
