This is a story from Madison County in the state of Alabama, USA. A story of unnecessary aggression by the police on a helpless man. Sureshbhai Patel, a 57-year-old Indian citizen was visiting his son, Chirag Patel, who works with a govt contractor in Huntsville as an engineer. And when one day this simple Gujarati gentleman went walking around the neighbourhood, he ended up in the hospital with half of his body paralysed and his vertebrae fused.

The statement also refers to a "communication barrier" which seems to have aggravated the situation.

But now as Sureshbhai Patel lies in the hospital, we are forced to wonder if his only crime was to be brown-skinned? Was not his frailty apparent nor his age?

Was not the Ferguson incident lesson enough to enforce some measure of control to the brutal practices being employed by the cops in America?

Larger questions can be raised about police brutality around the world.
