New Delhi: A 35-year-old woman staged a nude protest against the local police in Chotila village in Gujarat.

She was protesting against the police levying false allegations against her.

The woman, Kailash had come to Chotila a week ago after a rift with her husband and was summoned by the local police station for interrogation about frequent thefts in the area.

"The police reached the place. Many truckers had stopped there. They sorted out the traffic situation. A woman constable was called to dress her up and she was taken to a hospital to check her mental state," a police official said.

Kailash was arrested and admitted to the government hospital where the doctors have given her tranquilizers.
