You question is too general in nature. It would be better if you specify your problem.

It is a matter of common knowledge that police officer does not enjoy any immunity from illegal action. There are so many police officers, even officers of the level of IGs and DGPs suffering prosection; and many have remained in jail or serving jail terms.

You are advised to write facts of your case for appropriate legal opinion.
