Several top officials of the Delhi Police reached Congress leader Rahul Gandhi’s residence in the national capital to question him regarding his comments on the sexual harassment of women in Jammu and Kashmir.
The police want to know the details of the women who have faced sexual harassment in order to file legal complaints. Special CP (Law and Order), Sagarpreet Hooda along with DCP Pranav Tayal were seen outside Gandhi’s residence after he failed to respond to the notice.
“We’ve come here to talk to him. Rahul Gandhi gave a statement in Srinagar on Jan 30 that during Yatra he met several women & they told him that they had been raped…We’re trying to get details from him so that justice can be given to victims,” said SP Hooda.
The Congress leader had been served a notice on March 16 but he did not respond to it. While speaking to the public in Kashmir during Bharat Jodo Yatra, he had claimed that several women approached him to speak about the issue of sexual harassment in the union territory.
