India: Woman police inspector

The Maharashtra anti-corruption bureau (ACB) on Monday arrested police inspector (PI) Rajashree Shirishkumar Gandhi and her driver Abdul Shaikh for allegedly issuing threats and extorting Rs 18,000 from a hotel manager on August 15.

The ACB also searched the Fatimanagar residence of Gandhi, who is currently posted at Pune rural police’s crime branch.

Deputy superintendent of police (ACB) Subhash Aniruddha lodged a complaint with the Chatushrungi police on Monday.

Hotel owner Kishor Patil (34) has said in his complaint that the hotel is in his wife’s name and Sunil Vernekar is a manager. "Gandhi and her driver went to the hotel near Dhayari village on Sinhgad road on August 15 — a dry day — and claimed that liquor was being sold there. Gandhi demanded Rs 40,000 from Vernekar and Patil’s friend Sunil Tanpure, who paid her Rs 18,000," he said.

According to the complaint, after taking Rs 18,000, Gandhi immediately called up Patil and demanded the remaining amount. However, Patil expressed his inability to pay the amount that day. In the next two to three days, she allegedly made calls to the hotel owner.

The hotel went to the ACB’s office and in the presence of ACB officials, made a call to Gandhi, who again demanded the money. The ACB sleuths recorded the telephonic conversation and went to the Pune rural police’s headquarters at Pashan, along with Patil, to hand over the remaining amount. But Gandhi did not accept the money as she was busy in the police recruitment drive. Finally, the ACB made the arrest on Monday on the basis of the telephonic conversation.
