Journalists often use passive voice when writing about police actions. Many actively criticize that this reduces the attention on the officers.

I adjusted the intro but left "The death of Jaahnavi Kandula" as I didn’t know if that is a Wikipedia style issue. It should be “Jaahnavi Kandula died." Tiggeritian (talk) 14:47, 18 September 2023 (UTC)Reply
