The officer then brought the woman to a nearby budget hotel and proceeded to solicit sex from her.
It is learnt that the Indonesian worker initially refused the
officer's advances, but was coerced into giving him sex out of fear of
being thrown into lockup.
She lodged a report against him the next day but in a different district station.
"We have arrested the suspect and are investigating him under Section 376 for rape," said the police source on Thursday.
The source explained that the suspect, in his mid-20s has been
working in the service for seven years and is married with two children.
"We will not tolerate any behaviour of this kind in our force.
“We are looking into his records to see if he has any disciplinary problems in the past," added the source.
