Local police officials have not initiated any proceedings in the matter and said that they were waiting for the victim to recover and give a statement before taking action.

In another case in Agra, wife of another SP rank officer, earlier posted in Lucknow, has written a letter to Uttar Pradesh Director General of Police (DGP) O. P. Singh demanding action against her husband, who was allegedly involved in a long late night chats with a woman hailing from Lucknow.
