Speaking to TNIE, Haridwar Senior Superintendent of Police Pramendra Singh Dobhal stated, “The medical report has corroborated the sexual abuse. On Wednesday, the accused woman and her lover, Sumit Patwal were arrested near Shivmurti Chowk. The search for the absconding accused, Shubham, continues.”
He further said the accused woman attempted to normalise the sexual abuse to her daughter, allegedly telling her that physical relations were “normal.” The child was reportedly gang-raped a total of seven or eight times. Each time, she was allegedly given alcohol, and the former BJP leader was present during the horrific acts. It is also understood that the accused woman was running a hotel on lease with her lover, Sumit Patwal, in Haridwar’s Chitra Talkies lane, and it was in this hotel that the daughter was also subjected to gang-rape.
The Ranipur police station has registered a case under stringent sections, including gang-rape and the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act. After the minor’s medical examination and the recording of her statement before the court, police sent both accused to judicial custody.
In light of these grave allegations, the BJP has expelled the woman from the party. Ashutosh Sharma, BJP District President, issued a letter confirming her immediate expulsion from the party’s primary membership. She had already been removed from her post in the Mahila Morcha in August 2024 following complaints regarding her conduct.
