Accused promised wedding on May 15
According to her, their communication started as relatives, but Bharat later expressed a desire to marry her. Gaining her trust through sweet talk and promises of marriage, he allegedly had a physical relationship with her multiple times.
The victim said Bharat even took her to Delhi, where he sexually assaulted her. When she started pressuring him for marriage, he promised to marry her on May 15. On that day, she prepared for the wedding and applied mehndi on her hands, but the groom never arrived. Instead, she claims Bharat betrayed her and is now threatening to defame her.
Police summons accused’s family
She also revealed that when Bharat’s sister tried to convince him to go ahead with the marriage, he assaulted his sister too. The victim said she had earlier filed a case at Bhagwan Police Station and the SDOP office, but no action was taken.
She finally approached the SP office demanding strict legal action.
The SDOP assured that a fair investigation would be carried out. The groom’s family was also called to the police station for questioning and their statement.
