Overview
- Police say the accused arrived intoxicated at a Jalvayu Vihar housing society on May 31, tried to force his way into the victim’s home, intercepted and assaulted her in public, and then rammed his Mahindra Thar into the society gate while trying to flee.
- The constable, identified in reporting as Ronit Yadav, was arrested after the incident, produced before a local court, and remanded to judicial custody when the court rejected his bail application.
- Investigators registered multiple Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita offences for assault, trespass and intimidation and added Section 11 of the POCSO Act alleging harassment of the victim’s minor sister, a non‑bailable charge that raises the legal stakes.
- CCTV footage and viral videos are central to the probe, and police say they are examining camera recordings and witness statements while the victim has undergone a medical examination.
- The complainant says she had filed an earlier FIR in September 2025 but withdrew it after alleged threats to circulate private videos, a history that her counsel and police say informed the decision to press tougher charges and could prompt departmental review of the officer’s conduct.
