Man held for sitting in police officer's chair, donning cap

A man engaged in mining activity was arrested after he got himself photographed at a police post here sitting in the chair of a sub-inspector and wearing his cap in the presence of a constable on duty.
Amir Khan was arrested on charges of committing a criminal offence by wearing the police uniform and occupying the chair of an SI while the constable who helped him do this has been transferred and an inquiry ordered against him, ADGP (Law and Order) Ram Singh Meena said.
Khan's friend Shehzad, who clicked the photograph, too has been arrested, Meena said.
The incident took place at Lal Tappar police post under Doiwala police station recently, he said.

The photograph of a plainclothesman sitting in the official chair of an SI inside a police post wearing his cap and a man in uniform standing close to him with a smile on his lips took the city by surprise as it went viral on social networking sites.
Constable Lalit Joshi, in whose presence all this happened at the police post, has been transferred and an inquiry ordered against him.
