Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has also asked the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) to probe the Unnao gangrape case.
An FIR has been registered against BJP MLA Kuldeep Singh Sengar in connection with the alleged rape of a girl in Uttar Pradesh's Unnao district. Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has also asked the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) to probe the Unnao gangrape case.
In a midnight drama, Kuldeep Sengar visited Lucknow SSP office to prove that he was not absconding, even as sources said that he was there to surrender under pressure from the Yogi government. The BJP MLA said that certain news channels had declared him absconding and so he has come to SSP office only to prove that he was not trying to evade the law.
"Don't make me a rape accused, will go wherever you say. I am not an accused. I am here to respect public, law and media. I am not here because anyone told me to but because news channels had alleged that I am absconding," Sengar said outside SSP office.
Meanwhile, the Uttar Pradesh government has also ordered to hand over the twin cases of rape and the custodial death of the rape survivor's father to the CBI.
