As per a report from the special branch of the Pune city police, when a woman police constable frisked the candidate at the examination centre at Annasaheb Magar College in Hadapsar area of Pune, the machine sounded an alert.
The senior police inspector at the spot was informed about the candidate. Also, the police personnel checked the candidate twice. She told the police that a screw was fitted in her waist due to surgery.
The senior inspector instructed the women police personnel to check the candidate again in a separate room. Accordingly, when the police checked her, the candidate said the process was making her uncomfortable. She asked the police not to disturb her mindset before the examination. As nothing suspicious was found during the check, she was permitted to enter the examination hall.
