(Reuters) - An Indianapolis
woman has sued the city's police department, contending that an order to
remove an "Unmarked Police Car" bumper sticker from her minivan
violated her rights to free speech, the group representing her said on
Monday.
A lawsuit filed by
the American Civil Liberties Union of Indiana on Friday argued that
Indianapolis police did not have the right to question and make demands
of Pamela Konchinsky after pulling over her vehicle earlier this month.
"We contend that the police officers who detained and interrogated our
client without legal grounds to do so violated her constitutional
rights," ACLU attorney Kelly Eskew said in a statement. "The promise of
our Constitution is that these lines cannot be crossed."
