A woman has landed in trouble after filming Instagram reels dressed as a police officer. The accused, Simran, was arrested by the Fatehabad police for impersonating a cop, assaulting a housewife, and issuing threats while posing in uniform. Her male accomplice, identified as Satyawan, is on the run.

According to officials, Simran was flaunting the police uniform in videos, creating the illusion that she was an officer. Things turned serious when she allegedly used the fake identity to intimidate a woman at Khanora village, who filed a formal complaint.

The complainant, who has domestic issues with her husband, told the police that Simran, her husband's "rakhi sister" barged into her home, assaulted her, and threatened her in uniform.

Sub-Inspector Shiksha, who led the investigation, arrested Simran from Saniyana village and recovered the uniform. The authorities are now probing where she got the uniform from, and whether she used it to extort or threaten others.

DSP Umed Singh confirmed that she had been booked under multiple sections of the BNS. “She will be produced in court. Her partner, who is absconding, will be arrested soon,” he said.
