New Delhi (Vishvas News). A post is going viral on the social media platform Facebook. The video post is claiming that a lady ASI has been arrested in Gurdaspur. In the video, some Punjab Police officers can be seen arresting a lady wearing a Police uniform and her face covered with a piece of cloth.
In our investigation, we found the post’s claim to be fake. The original video is from September 2016 and the truth is, the woman in the video was arrested because she was disguising as a police officer in Gurdaspur. She did this because she wanted to marry a Punjab Police officer who wanted to marry a police officer.

To get more information on this, we spoke to Punjabi Jagran’s reporter Ranbeer Aakash who covers the Gurdaspur area. Ranbeer confirmed, “The event shown in the video is 3 years old. The woman appearing in ASI’s uniform is actually an ordinary girl. She wanted to marry a Police officer who wanted her wife to be a Police officer. Because she was not a Police officer, someone gave her the advice to become a fake police ASI. After that, the girl bought the uniform from Jalandhar and told the boy that she is an ASI who is posted in Gurdaspur. One day, she got caught by some officers and they found that she is a Fake ASI. After that, they took her to the City Police station where she confessed her guilt.”
