SAD Leader Demands Probe into Release of Rape Accused and Political Interference Allegations
Shiromani Akali Dal leader Bikram Singh Majithia has called for a CBI or court-monitored probe into the release of social media influencer Gurinder Singh, accused of abduction and rape, alleging police mishandling and political interference involving Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann's wife. Majithia presented audio and video clips to support his claims, which the Aam Aadmi Party dismissed as baseless. The National Human Rights Commission has also issued a notice regarding alleged demands for money to suppress the case. Independent verification of the allegations and materials is pending.
