Chandigarh, May 1: A Sector 23 resident, Ajay Kumar, had not imagined that a mouse caught in a trap will land him in police station.
Kumar had gone to release the mouse near his house when a patrolling team rounded him up for curfew violation and took him to Sector 17 police station.
A police team constituted to keep a check on morning walkers was on patrolling, when they saw the man holding a mouse trap near Mother Teresa Home in Sector 23.
By that time, Kumar had released the mouse and was heading back home when cops caught him and took him to the police station.
Ajay said that he was about to go for bath when he noticed the mouse in the trap and he thought of releasing it first. “I told the police that I had left house just to release the mouse, however, they didn’t listen”, he said.
Kumar was released after several hours.
The city is under lockdown following the outbreak of Covid19. Cops have been patrolling the streets to round up those moving out of their houses.
