They had introduced themselves as policemen and showed their authority card before requesting for the identity cards of the four women to check if there were any criminal records.

"The policemen moved in to check the women since they were behaving in a suspicious manner by the roadside at 11.30 pm. After checking their identity cards, they were allowed to leave the location since there were no records of criminal intend," he said.
