She said the official had been spotted near her house in Memnagar area since the past two-three days.

"During questioning we found that he was a policeman and belonged to SIB," Shweta said, adding "He was keeping a watch on me and my family."

Devda, on his part, denied he was spying on the family and said he was doing his duty.
