India hockey captain Sardar Singh has been accused by his long-time girlfriend of 'attempt to rape' in a complaint filed at a police station in Ludhiana.

The girl, who also claims to be Sardar's fiancee, is an India-origin Britisher who visited India recently to file the complaint, which she did on February 1 at the Kum Kalan Police Station in the Ludhiana city.

She also accuses Sardar of "blackmail, mental harassment and physical harassment."

Ludhiana police commissioner Paramraj Singh Umranangal has reportedly ordered an inquiry into the complaint.

Sardar, who has been leading India since 2012, is himself a deputy superintendent of police in Haryana.

The girl, who is a hockey player as well in the UK and met Sardar during the 2012 London Olympics, says that she and Sardar got engaged but then he refused to marry her.
