According to the NHRC acknowledgment letter, the complaint has been registered under Diary No. 11731\/IN\/2026 dated May 24, 2026.<\/p>\n<p data-end=\"1073\" data-start=\"772\">The petition urged the NHRC to conduct an independent inquiry into the incident and take strict action against those responsible. The complaint also sought interim compensation of Rs 20 lakh for the victim and requested protection for Mize and his family members.<\/p>\n<p data-end=\"1481\" data-start=\"1075\">According to the complaint submitted before the NHRC, Mize allegedly suffered serious injuries during detention after being \u201crepeatedly beaten with lathis and heavy leather belts,\u201d while also being subjected to verbal abuse and psychological torture. The complaint further alleged that police failed to conduct a mandatory medical examination despite visible injuries.<\/p>\n<p data-end=\"1804\" data-start=\"1483\">Photographs circulating on social media showing visible bruises on Mize\u2019s body have intensified public outrage and triggered widespread reactions across Arunachal Pradesh.
