    What's the story

    A trainee police constable's enthusiasm for "selfies"' landed him in the police lock-up after he took a picture while sitting in a senior judge's chair in a court in Madhya Pradesh's Umaria town, an official said.

    Ram Avtar Rawat, 28, the trainee constable at the police academy in Umaria, was later arrested on charges of trespassing, the official said.

    Here's more.

    Inebriated state

    Rawat was allegedly drunk during the incident

    On Saturday, Rawat, who was allegedly in an inebriated condition at that time, passed by the district judge's room in the court premises in Umaria, Kotwali police station in-charge RB Soni said.

    Soni added that on noticing that the room was open and empty, he went inside, sat in the district judge's chair and started clicking selfies on his mobile phone.
