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.
