Mistaken for "child lifters", a visiting Delhi Police team in plain clothes escaped mob fury here after the local police came to their rescue, officials said on Friday.
The incident took place on Thursday when the team from Delhi's Welcome police station reached Bhura village in Bhojipura area here in connection with a dowry case probe, they said.
"The Delhi Police team was in plain clothes due to which some confusion might have arisen," Deputy Inspector General (DIG) of Police, Bareilly Range, Rajesh Pandey, said.
