New Delhi: The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has filed a chargesheet in connection with the alleged rape and murder of a 19-year old Dalit woman by four men in Hathras, Uttar Pradesh in September. It has been filed on the basis of the victim’s last statement given on September 22. Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath recommended a CBI probe into the Hathras case, India Today reported.
