Police constable fleecing gullible motorists at the jn of Bapubhai Vashi road and flyover at VP west
There is police constable posted at the junction of Bapubhai Vashi road and Parle biscuit factory flyover at Vile Parle west. He is NOT a traffic constable. There is small stretch of one way and he stops motorists and ask for driving licence, saying that his boss traffic inspector is standing ahead. Once he has licence in his hand, he asks for bribe. When asked for receipt he says to come to police chowkie. He is not detailed for traffic duty , neither he is authorised by traffic police. Since I take this route everyday, I can see him doing this everyday for last 15 days. Last week I stopped to ask his name and tried to click his photograph, he hid his face and quickly moved away.
Local pan shop guy told me that this police constable is fleecing motorists without any authority and there is no traffic police at the junction. Is Mumbai police not aware or he is fleecing innocent citizens with blessings of someone higher up ?
