The court also directed the police to properly probe the case, filed by the woman against Kumar, as there were several points which required proper investigation.
Kumar, in his complaint filed through advocate R K Chaudhary, told the court that on the night of the incident, he had gone to drop two of his colleagues by his car and while returning from Kondli Mor, the woman suddenly came in front of his vehicle and started crying.
She then threatened to call police and took his gold chain and Rs 5,000, Kumar, a resident of Minto Road here, said, adding that the woman was known to his colleagues.
He alleged the whole thing was pre-planned as a policeman was also present there and he was taken to the police station by the cop and the woman filed a false complaint of stalking in order to extort more money from him.
