District Superintendent of Police N M Mayilvahanan has directed registration of an FIR against SI Velammal of Thiruvadanai station for illegally taking the jewels and also for preventing a constable from delivering an inquiry report into the charges against her to the SP's office.
According to Police SI Velammal, who has already received nine memos, had forced teacher Lavanya to part with her jewels when she came to the police station for questioning.
The SI who had summoned the the couple for investigation forced the teacher to remove all her jewels, including the mangalya sutra, and kept it herself, besides abusing her.
