The SI rank cop claimed the miscreants wanted her to reach a settlement with a man against whom she had lodged an FIR last month for allegedly harassing her over phone and extorting money, according to the PTI.
While the alleged incident took place last week, the Lucknow Police on Tuesday said an FIR has been lodged under relevant sections at the BBD police station in the case and an investigation is ongoing.
The case has been lodged under the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita Sections 127(2) (wrongful confinement), 61(2) (criminal conspiracy), and 351(2) (criminal intimidation) against one Anshuman Pandey and two others, according to the FIR, the PTI reported on Tuesday.
Sub-inspector Tiwari lodged complaint that she was "forcibly taken away" and threatened by unknown individuals on September 13.
Tiwari alleged that around 12.40 pm, a person came to her home in Kumharan Purwa Juggaur and handed her a document, claiming it was a notice that required her signature.
"As soon as I stepped outside, the individual snatched my phone and told me that children were waiting in a car and were feverish," she said.
The SI claimed that two men then "forcibly" made her enter a vehicle, which was driven by another person, according to the FIR seen by PTI.
She claimed that during the ordeal, the driver demanded that she reach a settlement with Anshuman Pandey or face severe consequences.
"They took me towards Satrikh Road and made me sign two documents," Tiwari added.
The sub-inspector further claimed she was abandoned near Bhitoli Chauraha.
Meanwhile, in an another incident, a shopkeeper and his two aides were arrested for allegedly assaulting a 36-year-old Mumbai police personnel at Byculla in central Mumbai following an argument over money, an official has said, the PTI reported on Tuesday.
The incident took place on Sunday morning at Dockyard Grain Store located near Dockyard Road, he said.
"The victim, an official posted at Tardeo police station, had gone to purchase groceries and household items. After buying the goods, the shopkeeper told him that he does not have a change to return the remaining amount, following which the police personnel went to another shop, got the change and made the payment to the shopkeeper," the official said, according to the PTI.
"While tendering the change, the police personnel passed a comment against the shopkeeper, saying that while he runs a big shop he does not have change.
Angry over the remark, the shopkeeper and his two aides started arguing with the cop and beat him up," he said.
