Extortion by police on highway NH14


26-Aug-2026 (In Criminal Law)
We had parked at car at NH14, outside the white line marked on highway, me n my boyfriend hugged each other n he was without shirt because we got wet in rains, n the problem was we were behind the seat but we didn't do anything. Just hugged u each other. The police demanded to call our parents although we were 24 &23 in age. My bf agreed to call his parents but my parents were a problem as they were strict.He said we parked the car on highway, n demanded 5k from us. Is this the right way to do.

You've faced extortion. Hugging in a car isn't a crime. They can't demand ₹5k or force adults to call parents. You should have noted their details, should not have paid them and reported to senior police or an online portal.
