Mr. Majumdar alleged that the police had refused to register the complaint against Mr. Banerjee.
Mr. Banerjee, while visiting an injured police officer at the SSKM hospital on September 14, had said that he would have shot people indulging in arson and violence on their forehead had he been there instead of the hospitalised officer.
The officer was beaten up in central Kolkata on September 13 during the BJP’s ‘March to Nabanna’ rally.
Police have made several arrests in connection with the attack on the officer, and setting on fire a police vehicle on that day.
