Police arrested Shrikant Tyagi on Tuesday for allegedly assaulting a woman in Noida and flaunting a car sticker. The care sticker falsely identified him as an MLA. The sticker was given to him by Swami Prasad Maurya, the Samajwadi party leader.
Alok Singh, the police commissioner, said that they impounded his two Toyotas, five cars, two Tata safaris, and a Honda Civic. Along with this, he also purchased a special serial number and they all have two zeroes and a Lucknow registration. He paid Rs 1.10 lakh for each of these, as these things would help him get identified as a VIP person.
Police arrested Tyagi on Tuesday morning from Meerut House. He told to police commissioner that he got the sticker from Swami Prasad Maurya. The sticker will get him identified as a member of the legislative assembly in UP.
