A constable named Shrikant, currently serving in Baghpat district, Uttar Pradesh, has reported a disturbing case of coercion involving a woman from Delhi. According to his complaint filed at the Khekra police station, the alleged incidents began in 2012 when he met the woman while posted in Ghaziabad. Over the years, Shrikant claims that the woman pressured him to convert to her religion and marry her, threatening to accuse him of rape if he resisted. This ongoing intimidation led him to comply with her demands out of fear for his reputation and potential legal consequences. Following his FIR, the woman was arrested and presented before a court. Police are now investigating the case thoroughly, examining the legality of the alleged conversion and marriage, and looking into any previous complaints that may relate to this situation.
