The arrested constables have been identified as Raghav Kumar and Mayura attached to Girinagara police station in Bengaluru. Both of them were suspended after the arrest.

In her complaint, advocate Sukanya said that the two policemen, who were on the night beat on Saturday stopped her auto, and sought an explanation about the money she was carrying.

“I told them that it was for a friend. But, they asked me to accompany them to the police station. On the way to the station, I told them I was willing to talk to the deputy commissioner of police (DCP) or other senior officials,” the complaint said. The duo subsequently left Sukanya midway, and fled with the cash.

DCP, Bengaluru south, SD Sharanappa said that he would personally look into the incident. "We have registered a case under section 395 of the Indian Penal Code, which is dacoity against the two constables.

Primary investigation has revealed the involvement of another individual called Krishnamurthy, besides the two constables, who have been arrested. We have also recovered Rs 6.74 lakh from the duo," he said. He added that the investigation of the case had been handed over to the assistant commisioner of polic of Chamrajpet.

New Delhi, Apr 27: Indian prime minister Narendra Modi has said the monthlong ongoing lockdown has yielded positive results and that the country has managed to save “thousands of lives”.

Modi, who had a videoconference with various heads of the states on Monday, said the impact of the coronavirus, however, will remain visible in the coming months, according to a press statement released by his office. On the issue of getting back Indians who are overseas, the Prime Minister said that this has to be done keeping in mind the fact that they don’t get inconvenienced and their families are not under any risk.

During the meeting with state heads, Modi advocated for social distancing of at least 6 feet and the use of face masks as a rapid response to tackle COVID-19.

He said that states should put their efforts of converting hotspots, or red zones, into “orange and thereafter green zones”.

India last week eased the lockdown by allowing shops to reopen and manufacturing and farming activities to resume in rural areas to help millions of poor, daily-wage earners. But the economic costs of the nationwide lockdown continue to mount in a country of 1.3 billion people.

Modi, who put India under a strict lockdown on March 25, did not say if the lockdown restrictions will extend after May 3.

India has confirmed over 27,000 cases of the coronavirus, including 872 deaths.
