Consequently, she made a complaint to the police, which in substance, inter alia, is as under:-

(2.) Levelling a variety of allegations and narrating the sequence of events in detail, in all, the complainant claimed that the petitioner has committed the criminal tress-pass, obstructed her in discharge of official duty as a public servant, uttered objectionable words and made such gestures, intended to insult her modesty and criminally intimidated her as well. In the background of these allegations and in the wake of complaint of the complainant, the present criminal case was registered against the petitioner-accused, vide FIR No.66 dated 08.03.2013(Annexure P-1), on accusation of having committed the offences punishable under Sections 451, 186, 506 and 509 IPC, by the police of Police Station Old Faridabad, in the manner depicted here-in-above.
