Adding further Bhasin said that Dr. Sanjeev’s involvement is proved as it was in his knowledge that the girl was held by three boys and she was not conscious about the things happening. "He was part of the plan till the end & he didn’t inform any authority", Bhasin added.
To recall, the 19-year-old woman, a school topper from Rewari who had been felicitated by the government, was abducted at a bus stop in Kanina town in neighbouring Mahendragarh district earlier this week while she was on the way to a coaching class. Police said she was allegedly drugged and gang-raped at a room housing a tubewell for irrigation.
According to a report by PTI, the victim's family alleged that police had failed to take prompt action on their complaint and delayed action by citing jurisdiction issue between police units of Rewari and Mahendergarh districts. Rewari Superintendent of Police Rajesh Duggal, who has been accused of failing to take prompt action, has been shunted out and will be replaced by the SP of chief minister's security, Rahul Sharma, they said. Duggal will now lead a battalion of Haryana Armed Police in Hisar.
