"All the three accused have been identified by us. One of the accused has also lodged a counter-complaint against the woman which is being examined by us," said the officer.
According to police, the woman had reportedly complained to the Municipal Corporation and sought to stop construction of an "unauthorised building" owned by one of the accused.
"The entire incident seems fishy and we are cross checking the claims and counter-claims of both the complainant and the accused," he said.
"It was also alleged that the woman and the accused were trying to reach out for some settlement which went awry and led to confrontation between them after which the molestation complaint was lodged," the officer added.
