I was riding my bike in Kalyan city, when a man in a safari suit riding on a royal enfield stopped me. He told me that he was a police officer and demanded to show my license and vehicle papers. When i asked for his identification, he said rudely he will take me to police station if i dont show him my license and papers, then he started hurling abuses. So when i showed him, he said i dont have proper insurance papers and told me to cough up 500 bucks, i had to pay him 300 bucks to get out of the situation. He was riding a royal enfield bike with the VIP number plate MH 05 BA 786 and at the front and back of the bike, it had Mumbai Police logo on it and POLICE written on back of it. It seems like off duty cops are threating citizens and making them cough up money for no reason and threating to take them to police station, jail and make fake cases against them if they dont give money to them, i wonder how different are these police officers from the real criminals and what gives them the right to hurl abuses at citizens, maybe they teach that at the police academy.
