Ganderbal: Police have slapped a shopkeeper with draconian Public Safety Act (PSA), who allegedly helped a girl tie policeman to a chair in central Kashmir’s Ganderbal district. The girl had alleged that the cop had clicked her pictures with his cell phone.
Mohammad Shafi Khan 36, a resident of Yarmuqam Arhama village of Ganderbal, has been shifted to Kotbalwal jail in Jammu.
A police official said that Khan was booked under FIR no. 219/2017 under section 148, 149, 303, 336 and other unlawful acts.
“We registered an FIR and he was arrested soon afterwards,” SSP ganderbal Fayaz Ahmad Lone said.
