The woman officer on January 2 had filed a complaint with the police alleging that the accused had made an obscene video of her and was blackmailing her as well as her family members, Station House Officer Ram Adhar said. Acting on the complaint, the police on Friday arrested the accused hailing from Basantpur in Shahjahanpur district, he said.
