Two assistant sub-inspectors (ASIs) of the Road Safety Force in Patiala and an alleged associate have been booked for allegedly blackmailing couples by recording videos of them in parked cars on deserted roads.
The Police have arrested ASI Karnail Singh and Gurpreet Singh, while ASI Balihar Singh has also been named in the case.
The accused allegedly recorded videos of couples near Sullar Main Road and threatened them to demand money. The police recovered 90 videos from Gurpreet Singh’s mobile phone.
In one alleged incident, the accused demanded Rs 20,000 from a couple, but the amount was later settled at Rs 5,000.
Both arrested accused were produced before a court, which granted two days of remand. The police are investigating the case and questioning the accused about their alleged activities, the source of the uniform and the role of the private associate.
