A Himachal Pradesh court has accepted a second closure report, granting a clean chit to Haryana BJP chief Mohan Lal Badoli and singer Rocky Mittal in an alleged gangrape case. The court cited a lack of evidence and the complainant's failure to appear during proceedings. The case stemmed from a complaint by a 28-year-old woman alleging rape in July 2023, but the FIR was lodged nearly 17 months later. Key issues included the delay in reporting, refusal of medical examination, unavailability of CCTV footage, and an eyewitness not supporting the claims.
