Karnal SP Wants Pvt School Staffer’s ‘Gang Rape’ Case Transferred To Other District

Chandigarh: After almost two months of the alleged gang rape of a private school employee, Karnal superintendent of police (SP) appealed to the Karnal Range Inspector General of Police (IGP) to shift the case to another district.

The piece of development has raised eyebrows as the woman complainant — who accused the owner of the school and a senior revenue department official of raping her — was also arrested for reportedly accepting a bribe of Rs 7.25 lakh to withdraw the complaint.

The woman recently secured bail and promptly produced an audio file accusing Nilokheri MLA’s son of helping the cops ‘frame’ her in the case.

According to the letter, SP Surinder Singh Bhoria reportedly said both the cases were already under probe and two SITs have been formed. “But these cases are being highlighted in the social media to a great extent and unnecessarily, district police are being dragged in the controversy by both the parties,” Bhoria was quoted as saying by Hindustan Times on Monday.

“Many audio recordings are being used in the media, but these were never produced before the SIT during the course of investigation by the complainant,” read the letter.

“It is requested to ensure the impartial image and working of the police and in the interest of justice that this case be transferred to some other district,” the Bhoria mentioned in the letter.

Karnal IGP Bharti Arora also confirmed to have received the letter from the SP.

However, it may be recalled that on the complaint of the woman on July 7, the cops had booked the private school owner, a revenue official and the woman school principal under sections 376D, 506, 323 and 34 of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) for the crime committed two years ago.
