Police have booked three cops in Pakistan on the charge of snatching cash from a citizen, media reports said.

The police told Dawn News two of the officials were stationed at Sabzi Mandi police station and one at the Red Zone.

According to the FIR, Asad Amin, working at a restaurant at I-8/1 and a resident of Rawalpindi, came to Essanagri at I-9/1 on April 30 to meet his sister. The three police officials riding two motorcycles intercepted him when he was returning home at 11:30pm, reports Dawn News.

“The officials told Amin that he had smell of alcohol on his breath,” the FIR stated as quoted by the newspaper.

The officials then took him on a motorcycle along with them but after a few minutes disembarked from the motorcycles and searched him. During the search, the officials snatched Rs11,500 from his purse and drove off, reports  Dawn News.

Later, a case was registered against the three cops.

When contacted, Amin told Dawn that the three officials later came to his house to tender apology and also returned the amount.

“They are pressuring me to pardon them and withdraw the case,” he alleged.

A police officer, when contacted, told Dawn on condition of anonymity that after the registration of the case the three officials were asked by their seniors to get an affidavit from the complainant that he had pardoned them.

The certificate will be submitted to court for quashing the case, reports the newspaper.
