A senior police official in Telangana was booked for allegedly stalking a woman employed in a state-run Power Distribution Company, police said on Sunday.

Based on a complaint lodged by the woman at Chaitanyapuri Police Station here on Saturday, a case was registered against the Superintendent of Police in Crime Investigation Department under IPC Section 354-D (stalking), they said.

The woman stated that while she was preparing for national competitions at Saroornagar Stadium in the city, the official told her that they are conducting classes and asked her to attend. As he was a senior police official, she agreed to attend. He also took her phone number, she said in her complaint.

The official used to send quotations, romantic old Hindi songs and videos displaying different types of sarees and pictures to her. He also asked her to send a photograph of her and several times allegedly asked her to wear a saree while attending classes, the woman said.
