The woman in uniform stood and watched as another, a civilian, grabbed a man by the back of his shirt, dragged him around the narrow Jamshedpur street, and attacked him with a slipper.

When the man was later ushered into a car, the woman dropped her slipper, wore it and walked away.

ANI reported that the man had posed as an Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB) officer and asked the woman for Rs 50,000. She called him on the pretext of giving him the money to have him arrested, the newswire said in a tweet on Wednesday, May 8.

Footage of the incident, filmed in Jamshedpur's Mango area, also showed the alleged fraudster being attacked by a man, who threw him onto the street and beat him with a stick.
