The Noida Police on Monday said they have arrested two persons for allegedly posing as officials from the Delhi Police s Crime Branch and extorting money from people.
If ever confronted by a policeman, the accused, who duped several people in Delhi and NCR, would get away by telling them that they were from the press , officials said. The duo targeted people on roads. They would stop motorcycles or cars and tell the occupant that they are from the Crime Branch of the Delhi Police and needed to check the vehicle s documents, a police spokesperson said.
