Several cops climbed the unipole and tied Harun to a rope to avoid any injuries in case he jumped. He was kicked by the policemen to make him let go of the advertisement grills. After several such kicks, the man lost his grip and fell straight down where the locals had arranged a huge tarpaulin to break his fall, reports Hindustan Times.
