The victim, 29, a disc jockey, who has accused the two of stalking, wrongful restraint and driving a vehicle under the influence of alcohol is the daughter of a senior IAS officer. The case was registered at Sector 26 police station.
Earlier today, the woman’s father wrote a Facebook post and urged people to fight crime against women while also sharing the ordeal his family had gone through. “If we do not persist in trying to bring the guilty to justice, more and more daughters will suffer this hurt,” he wrote.
The lady too took to social media and said that she feels lucky not to be the daughter of a commoner or else who knows what her fate could be. She wrote,”I’m lucky, it seems, to not be the daughter of a common man, because what chance would they have against such VIPs? I’m also lucky because I’m not lying raped and murdered in a ditch somewhere.”
