Kasauli Court Clears BJP Chief, Singer in Gangrape Case
A court in Kasauli accepted a police report that cleared two men, Mohan Lal Badoli and Jai Bhagwan Mittal, of gangrape charges.
A woman said they raped her in a hotel in July 2023, but she only told the police in December 2024.
The court said her story was doubtful because she waited so long to report it.
There was no video from the hotel, and she didn't get a medical check.
Her friend, who was with her, didn't support her story.
The case is now closed, but the woman is trying to challenge the decision.
Kasauli court accepted the police closure report, clearing Haryana BJP chief Mohan Lal Badoli and singer Jai Bhagwan Mittal of gangrape charges.
The victim alleged she was raped in July 2023 but filed a complaint in December 2024, over 17 months later.
The court found the case doubtful due to the significant delay in reporting and lack of supporting evidence like CCTV footage or medical examination.
The victim's friend, who was present during the incident, did not support her allegations.
The victim has filed a revision petition challenging the court's decision to accept the closure report.
