Mumbai Railway Cops Suspended for Alleged Extortion of Rajasthan Man
Imagine some police officers at a train station found some gold and money with a man and his daughter.
They told him they would arrest him if he didn't give them money.
The officers took Rs 30,000 from the man, who then reported it to the police.
Now, three officers have been suspended and are being investigated.
The police are also checking if some rooms at the station were used for similar bad things.
The police are looking for the officers involved to ask them questions.
Three GRP personnel were suspended for allegedly extorting Rs 30,000 from a Rajasthan man at Mumbai Central.
The incident occurred on August 10 when the man and his daughter were at the station to catch a train.
Two constables found a gold piece and cash during a bag search.
