The car, a two-year-old SUV, was seized by police in India’s northern state of Uttar Pradesh after they were called to a dispute between the owner and another party.

However, the owner tracked the car and saw it had been driven almost 90 miles away from the police station.

The car was remotely locked and the police officers were stranded inside for three hours, the Hindustan Times reports.

The owner has now lodged a complaint with local police alleging misuse of his vehicle.
