An FIR has been lodged against the district president of the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party’s (BJP) minority morcha, Masoom Raza Rahi at the the Sadar Kotwali police station, as per sources.

The girl revealed that on 28 August, the BJP leader brutally raped her and when her father tried saving her, the accused hit him leading to serious injuries. He was admitted to a hospital but succumbed to his injuries during treatment.

The victim lived in the accused’s house as a tenant along with her father and three sisters and a younger brother after her mother’s death.

A senior leader of the BJP’s minority morcha, while confirming that Rahi is the district president of the morcha, said law is equal for everyone. The guilty will be punished and the victim will get justice, he asserted.
