The drama began when the woman climbed atop a water tank and threatened to jump, prompting the police to rush to the spot. The police tried to persuade her to come down but she refused, alleging that the police were not taking action on her complaint.

After a tense standoff that lasted for over an hour, the police finally managed to bring the woman down safely. Later, the police registered a cross-FIR against the doctor, based on the woman’s complaint.

According to the police, the woman had filed a complaint against the doctor, alleging that he had misbehaved with her. However, the doctor had instead filed a complaint against the woman and her accomplices, alleging that they had attacked him and pulled his beard.
