A woman constable has filed a complaint against her husband and his paramour, both police personnel, accusing them of assaulting and robbing her.
The 31-year-old constable and her husband, both posted at Thane district rural police headquarters, had got married in 2006.
According to the police, the complainant’s husband had an affair with a woman constable posted at Palghar rural police headquarters.
Yesterday, she had caught her husband with his paramour while alighting from a car at Varsova traffic outpost near Bhayander in Thane. Seeing his wife there, the man and his paramour got annoyed and thrashed her. They also snatched her ‘mangalsutra’ (sacred thread worn by a married woman) and fled to Palghar, police said.
Based on the complaint, offences were registered last night against the two under IPC sections 392 (robbery), 323 (voluntarily causing hurt), 504, 506 (criminal intimidation) read with 34.
No arrest has been made so far in connection, police added.
