JAIPUR: Close on the heels of Ruchika Girhotra's 19-year-old molestation case making waves, another episode in which a top cop allegedly raped a |
tribal woman 13 years ago but has not been brought to justice has surfaced in Rajasthan.
The victim, hailing from Rajasthan's Dausa district, who was allegedly abducted and raped by an IPS officer, today sat on a dharna here along with her family members and Independent MP Kirori Lal Meena after she was not allowed to meet Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot at his residence.
Around 50 people led by the MP are on the dharna at civil line railway crossing demanding justice for the victim.
"Gehlot had given us appointment for the morning, but the police officer on duty at the CM's residence denied us entry," the victim's husband Khyali Ram Meena told reporters here.
The woman was allegedly abducted and taken to Noida in Uttar Pradesh in January 1997 where she was allegedly raped by former Deputy Inspector General (DIG) Madhukar Tandon, then posted in police headquarters and is now said to be absconding.
State Home Minister Shanti Dhariwal said that the event took place some years ago and the government will find out why the official was not arrested and whether he is alive or dead. The government will go into the matter, he said.
Same incident was happened in Jharkhand, where an IPS officer (DIG) Mr. P S Natrajan exploted s*xually a tribal girl Ms. Sushma Badaik, who had approached police for justice, but unfortunately herself got trapped.
It is important to mention that Dowry for IAS/IPS grooms runs in crores.
