Mumbai: MS Ortho arrested for Attacking Woman Constable on Duty under alcohol influence

In her complainant, a woman constable stated that she was on patrol duty in Juhu when she was informed around 6am by a passing biker that two women and a man were quarrelling loudly in a seemingly inebriated condition at Juhu Circle.

The constable’s vehicle reached the spot, where she saw the trio involved in a heated argument. The constable asked them to stop fighting; instead, they began quarrelling with her.

After the argument reached its worst point, Dr Pagare allegedly started molesting the constable, while Singh beat her and scratched her on the face. In their heavily drunken state, they claimed that they knew senior police officers, and refused to get into the police vehicle.

Moreover, when they reached the police station, they allegedly created a furore under the influence of alcohol. Their behaviour continued at Cooper Hospital where they were taken for a medical checkup.

A police officer told HT, “We have gained their custody for a day, and we will record their statements. They were reeking of alcohol, so we subjected them to a medical test at Cooper hospital. The report is positive.”

Investigators are now going to collect CCTV footage and record eye-witness statements in the matter.
