Evidence states that she was stopped by the officer and questioned on why she was using the presidential staircase when an altercation ensued.
"On the material day, the KICC police station OCS was on patrol duties when she found the accused person using a staircase preserved for the president. She stopped her and cautioned her about the same but the accused became hostile," the police report read in part.
