Chandigarh Stalking Case: BJP leader makes a shocking comment on the victim
Bhatti, in several interviews to news channels on Monday, said girls should not go out at night.
Though the BJP leader condemned the incident, he carried on to say girls should not stay out at late night to keep themselves safe.
Haryana Police arrested the son of state Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) chief for allegedly stalking a senior IAS officer’s daughter on Sunday.
Along with the politician's son, another person has also been arrested in connection with the incident.
Police arrested Vikas Barala, the 23-year-old son of BJP’s Subhash Barala, and his friend Ashish Kumar, 27, from the Housing Board light point late on Friday night.
Both were later released on bail.
The victim of the incident, who is a video jockey, alleged that on Friday night her car was followed by a Tata Safari Storm (HR-23G-1008).
According to her, the men driving the SUV were drunk and pulled up close to her car several time.
She alleged that they even tried to block her way to force her to other routes.
She claimed that at one point, the SUV blocked her way and the person in the co-driver’s seat got down and started walking towards her vehicle.
She then reversed the vehicle and started moving. However, the men continued to follow her.
The girl then called up the 100 helpline and gave the number details of the SUV and her location.
