The Amboli police on Wednesday arrested a Canadian model for allegedly assaulting the Election Commission's flying squad and police officials who were on poll duty at Azad Nagar.

The incident took place around 12.30 am on Wednesday when the EC flying squad was checking vehicles during a nakabandi at Veera Desai Road and recording the inspection. When Sheena Lakhani, 33, was stopped, she objected to the recording saying she was an NRI and had nothing to do with the elections. "The EC officials asked her to leave when they did not find anything suspicious," said an officer.
