Court Issues Notice on Petition to Add Attempt-to-Rape Charge Against Former Haryana MinisterPreviousNext

A local court has issued notices for a revision petition seeking to add an attempt-to-rape charge against former Haryana minister and Olympian Sandeep Singh in a sexual harassment case. The petition challenges the dismissal of the state's plea to amend charges related to an alleged 2022 molestation incident at Singh's official residence. The court scheduled the hearing for November 4, with the case originally registered following a complaint by a former coach and charges framed in July 2024. Singh denies the allegations.
