Ludhiana, May 16 A head constable has been booked for allegedly trying to snatch money from a city resident on Friday. The incident occurred last night.

It has been learnt that around 10 pm, Chander Shekhar was coming out of an ATM of Allahabad Bank on Chandigarh Road after withdrawing Rs 5,000.

As he was about to leave for his home in Sector 32, constable Janak Raj hitched a ride from him.

Shekhar readily agreed but mid-way, the policeman allegedly tried to snatch the money from him.

Shekhar raised the alarm and people gathered on the spot. Eyewitnesses claimed that the head constable tried to pressurise them saying he was from the Division Number 7 police station and that he would get them arrested in a false case.

Raj was finally handed over to the police. The police have recorded the statements of the accused head constable.
