SHILLONG: A woman in Shillong city was allegedly assaulted by a woman constable of Shillong police recently.
The woman, identified as 28-year-old Jasmine Shylla, on Monday told reporters that she was in a city pub on Wednesday last when someone misbehaved with her.
Admitting she was drunk, she, however, added that she was thrown out from the pub by the bouncers and later police also arrived at the spot.
She alleged that the woman constable from Sadar police station assaulted her and landed many blows on her as a result of which she suffered serious injuries.
The woman, who is undergoing treatment in Shillong Civil Hospital, also claimed that she has filed a complaint with the police in this connection.
However, according to the FIR, when Shylla was taken to Civil Hospital for medical examination around 11pm on December 5 by Sadar police, she verbally abused the personnel at the police assistance booth when they were entering her name in the register and “kicked the table and threw a tantrum”.
