Yes, the police has the power to arrest a person under Sec. 354 for it being a congnisable and non bailable offence. Moreover, it can not be compounded at the behest of the complainant and one has to move to the Hon'ble High Court to get the FIR quashed in that case. As far as bail is concerned, as the police may arrest you any time, the smart thing to do here is apply for an anticipatory bail in the concerned district court and go for quashing of the FIR. For detailed consultation you may consider consulting me.
