‘Instagram Queen' in trouble again: Sacked cop arrested for disproportionate assets; freeze on Rs 1.35cr possessions
Bathinda: Punjab Police dismissed head constable Amandeep Kaur, widely known on social media as 'Instagram Queen' and 'Thar wali constable' for her flashy lifestyle, was arrested by the state vigilance bureau on Monday for allegedly having assets disproportionate to her income. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Amandeep was arrested from Punjabi singer Afsana Khan's residence in Badal village. She is a friend of Afsana Khan's sister, Raftar Kaur, and had gobe to meet her. In separate action, there was more trouble for the sacked cop, as her movable and immovable assets worth Rs 1.35 crore were also frozen as per orders confirmed by the Union ministry of finance. The assets included a residential building in Virat Nagar, Bathinda, valued at Rs 99 lakh; a residential plot in Dream City, Bathinda, valued at Rs 18.12 lakh; a Mahindra Thar 2025 model valued at Rs 14 lakh; a Royal Enfield Bullet motorcycle model 2023 valued at Rs 1.7 lakh, a Rolex watch valued at Rs 1 lakh, three mobile phones valued at Rs 56,000, and Rs 1.01 lakh in her bank account. The order to freeze the assets were issued under the Smugglers and Foreign Exchange Manipulators (Forfeiture of Property) Act, 1976; Narcotics Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act, 1985; and Adjudicating Authority Prohibition of Benami Property Transactions Act, 1988. Earlier, acting on a complaint, the VB scrutinised details of Amandeep's movable and immovable properties acquired between 2018 and 2025, along with her salary, bank accounts, and loan records. A spokesperson for the bureau stated the probe revealed that Amandeep's total income was Rs 1.08 crore during the seven years, while her expenditure stood at Rs 1.39 crore, which is Rs 31 lakh more than her known sources of income. Based on these findings, the bureau registered a case under sections of the Prevention of Corruption Act at its police station in Bathinda range. Amandeep, who hit the headlines earlier this year after she was caught with heroin, now faces fresh legal trouble as authorities pursue a case against her for amassing assets that allegedly far exceed her known sources of income. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now She was dismissed from service after her arrest under the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act on April 3, 2025. She was caught with 17.7 gm heroin inside her Thar SUV during a routine check near Badal flyover in Bathinda. The operation was conducted by the anti-narcotics task force (ANTF) in collaboration with local police. Her vehicle was impounded, and she was taken into custody. Police then conducted investigations into the backward and forward linkages regarding the recovery of the drug, apart from the assets amassed by her. Despite being a serving police officer, Amandeep frequently posted Instagram reels in uniform, in direct violation of Punjab Police's social media conduct rules. The department prohibits personnel from creating or sharing videos while in uniform to preserve professionalism and prevent the misuse of the police emblem. On social media, Amandeep is a sensation and has 90,000 followers on Instagram, where she shows off her lavish lifestyle, branded handbags, designer attire, and her Shih Tzu pet dog. Her frequent transfers during her 14-year tenure were attributed to complaints about disciplinary violations and misuse of social media. A Mahindra Thar 2021 model, valued at Rs 12.5 lakh, was not frozen as it was sold before the NDPS Act case was registered against her.
