A case has been registered against head constable Rahul Sharma, currently posted in Dewas, for allegedly harassing a woman constable in Indore. The complaint was filed by the woman constable, who alleged that Sharma assaulted and harassed her despite being married.

According to ACP Rubina Mizwani, the complainant and Sharma became acquainted during her posting in Dewas. Sharma allegedly continued to harass her, prompting her to seek a transfer to Indore. However, the harassment allegedly continued, with Sharma repeatedly calling her from different numbers and threatening her.

The woman constable alleged that Sharma recently stopped her on the pretext of talking, forced her into his car, and pressured her to marry him. After she informed her mother, family members reached the spot and took her to the police station, while Sharma fled in his car.

The city police have informed Dewas SP Puneet Gehlot, who has attached Sharma to the police lines and ordered an inquiry by a CSP-rank officer. A case has been registered under bailable sections, and Sharma was taken into custody and later released after being served a legal notice.
