Learned experts and members of this community,
I have a query. Back in 2008 I was consuming alcohol in public place in Kolkata. Suddenly police caught me, but they didn't take me to hospital for medical check up, on the contrary they took me to Police Station. I was asked to hand over my wallet, watch and then I was put behind bars. After 2 hrs a person(Later came to know that he was a lawyer) came. Asked me to come out. Wrote my name and address, asked me to sign a few forms and then fingerprinted me. After that asked me to give them Rs. 500 which I did. Due to moral fear I shared this incident with nobody. Since then I have received no communication from anybody. Neither any court nor any police station ever contacted me. During surfing internet I came to know that such cases come under the purview of IPC Sec 268. But I have no document, nothing at all. Even have no idea with which section they have charged me, neither I was produced to court nor I received any summon in the last 8 yrs.
After working in MNCs for more than half a decade I'm planning to appear in UPSC.
Please tell me is this going to be a problem? I don't intend to hide anything but the problem is I have no document with me to validate any details, I don't even know whether a case was lodged or not.
During that two hours only they put me behind bar, then took signature of forms, took fingerprints, took Rs. 500 and then asked me to go.
How should I take it? Am I going to face any problem if I omit it while filling up govt. service jobs?
Please guide
Is ipc 268 a hindrance to get government job
