- Paid INR 3,000
I was going back to my hometown and was getting late. I reached Bandra terminus at around 7:15 am on 18th July and was walking fast towards a platform. On seeing this, I think. the Railway police person stopped me and checked my luggage. They didn't find anything wrong. Then they asked for my mobile phone and I handed over it to them. They asked me to unlock it and did so. They went through all my pics and videos and unfortunately there was a single porn video that was sent to me by a friend of mine on whatsapp. He kept on watching it for a couple of minutes. When I saw this, I said that I was getting late and please let me go. To this he said, What is your father? I answered to the question. After this they said it is illegal to have porn in your phone and showed me a printed document in which it was written that you can get a sentence up to 2 years or Rs 10000 fine or both. I said I'm 25 years old and can watch porn. He replies to it saying don't try to teach us(there were 2 policemen). He said then either leave your phone or pay the fine. I begged but they didn't listed to a single word. I said I have no money and to this he said there is an ATM machine outside the railway station, go and withdraw. My train was about to leave the station in 4-5 minutes. I had no option left and gave him Rs 3000 after negotiations. I felt so helpless that day and now what, no respect for policemen. "ek machli poore talaab ko ganda karti hai". Don't know the names of the officers but there were CCTV cameras installed . They were sitting just below the cameras with chairs and a table. If someone really want to look into this, police officers can check whose duty was there on that day and time.
