Urfi Javed In TROUBLE As Mumbai Police Files Case Against Her for ‘Misleading’ Arrest Video

Urfi Javed made headlines on Friday after a video of her arrest went viral all over social media. The social media sensation was seen out on a coffee run in the morning when a group of alleged police officers took her into custody. In the video, a female police officer asked Urfi to accompany them to the police station. When Urfi questioned the reason she was taken into custody, the officer asked in return, “Itne chote chote kapde kaun pehenke kaun ghumta hai?” The video that soon got circulated over social media got the netizens attention, following which they were speculating the truth behind it. Now the Mumbai Police has issued an official statement saying that the people in the video posing as police officers were not police officials to begin with.

In a statement issued my the Mumbai Police handle on X(formerly Twitter), they stated, “One Can’t Violate Law Of The Land, For Cheap Publicity ! A viral video of a woman being allegedly arrested by Mumbai Police, in a case of obscenity is not true – insignia & uniform has been misused.”

Informing that a case has been registered against the offenders, the statement further read, “However, a criminal case has been registered against those involved in the misleading video, at Oshiwara Pstn under sections 171, 419, 500, 34 IPC. While further investigation is on, the fake inspector is under arrest & the vehicle has been seized too. #RealityCheck.”

For the unversed, Urfi was seen wearing a backless red top with a pair of denim pants for her coffee run. When the actress asked the official for the reason again, the officials asked her to join her to the police station. They held her by her arms and took her into custody. News18 couldn’t verify the incident or the authenticity of the video at the time of publishing.

However, it is worth noting that Urfi did land in trouble due to her fashion choices recently. Last month, a complaint was filed against Urfi for her fashion choices at the Bandra Police Station, ETimes reported. The actress had made her way to the police station soon after.

Urfi Javed is often trolled, targeted and abused because of her fashion choices. The Bigg Boss OTT fame has never shied away from talking about the same. Earlier, in an interview, Urfi lashed out at those filing complaints against her and mentioned that she feels unsafe. However, also defended her choice of outfits and admitted that she is ‘doing it for attention’. “This industry is all about getting popularity and getting attention, so what is wrong with it then?” she told E-Times. Urfi Javed further argued that she is not the only one who is wearing ‘these kind of clothes’ and said that there are several girls who share bikini pictures on social media.
