Special Judge Narottam Kaushal granted bail to sacked head constable Satish Chandra while asking him to furnish a personal bond of Rs.10,000.

The court, however, observed that there was no direct evidence showing that the traffic policeman demanded a bribe.

The incident occurred just after noon when 30-year-old Ramandeep Kaur was returning home with her three daughters from Guru Harkrishan Public School after attending a parents-teachers meeting.

Kaur said when she took a turn on Golf Links Road, the policeman stopped her and accused her of jumping a red light. He asked her to pay Rs 200.

As she asked for a receipt for the fine, the policeman refused. She walked away without paying the fine which angered him. A heated argument followed and he hit her with a brick.
