All-Women Cop Team Does First-Ever Encounter In Ghaziabad, Arrests Criminal

A team of female police officers conducted their first-ever encounter in Uttar Pradesh's Ghaziabad and arrested a wanted criminal.

The encounter broke out late last night when 22-year-old Jitendra, who faces multiple cases, including snatching, robbery and theft, was told to stop at a checkpoint, senior police officer Upasana Pandey said.

Jitendra, who was on a two-wheeler, however, tried to escape and lost control and fell.

When asked to surrender, he fired at the police team. In retaliatory firing, he was injured and arrested, Ms Pandey said.
