Cops receive anonymous letter defaming woman constable
Hindustan TimesMUMBAI: Months after a fake letter alleging senior officers of the motor transport department sexually exploited women constable/drivers created a simmering controversy, a similar letter by an anonymous sender reached a Central Mumbai police station defaming their female constable. “A letter was received at the police station a few days ago addressed to our 30-year-old female constable. When the woman constable went through the letter, she found several defamatory things mentioned about her, like she had an affair with a male constable at the same police station and threatened to inform her family about it,” said a police officer. “All the allegations made in the letter were fake, so the female constable approached us to register an offence.” The unidentified person has been booked under sections 354D, 509 and 500 of the Indian Penal Code.
