Unnao rape case: CBI books BJP MLA Kuldeep Singh Sengar, questions him


Since the murder charge was added subsequently by the state police, it does not reflect in the CBI FIR.The third case pertains to the allegations against the victim's father, who was arrested under the Arms Act and put in jail by the police, where he died. According to the post-mortem report, he had suffered serious injuries.As per the rules, the CBI re-registers the FIRs of the state police while taking over a probe, but remains at freedom to arrive at its own conclusions, which are filed before a special court in its final report. The final report can either be a closure report or a chargesheet.The victim has alleged that on June 4, 2017, she was raped by the MLA at his residence, when she had gone to meet him, along with a relative, seeking a job.In February, the girl's family had moved the court, seeking to include the MLA's name in the case. The agency sleuths swooped down at the Lucknow residence of Sengar in the early hours today and took him to its office for questioning.Sengar, a four-time MLA, enjoys an immense clout, cutting across party lines, in the rural areas of Unnao district, a semi-urban area at a distance of about 70 km from Lucknow.A video, purportedly showing the victim's father before his death, has gone viral. Several television news channels have also aired it.In the video, the victim's father alleged that he was mercilessly beaten up, including with rifle butts, by the MLA's brother and others in the presence of police personnel.
