New Delhi: The law student from Shahjahanpur, who accused BJP leader Chinmayanand of rape, has been arrested and was sent to 14-day judicial custody today.
She was arrested around 9.15 am from her home in the presence of her father and brother after which she was taken for a medical examination. She was then produced before the court of Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate Vineet Kumar, who sent her to 14 days judicial custody.
The law student’s arrest comes two days after she was denied anticipatory bail by a Division Bench of the Allahabad High Court. The court had asked her to approach an appropriate court after which the student’s lawyer approached the additional district and sessions court which accepted the plea and fixed Thursday for the hearing.
“I do not know if the people who helped me escape from Chinmayanand were using me. I have nothing to do with the extortion case. I think all this drama is being done to dilute my charges of rape,” the law student had said.
