'Selective Outreach': BJP Slams Congress Over 'Degrading Law & Order' In Karnataka After Woman Assault Case

Haveri SP Anshu Kumar said, a woman accused seven people of which three of them have been arrested.

Three persons were arrested in connection with alleged gang rape in Haveri district of Karnataka, said police on Friday. The arrest on Thursday was made after a group of men barged into a lodge room of an interfaith couple and thrashed them. Later, the survivor alleged that the accused took her to a secluded place and gang-raped her. 

The incident came to light after the video of the incident was circulated on social media. 

According to a report ANI,  Haveri SP Anshu Kumar said, the statement of the victim was recorded under 164 of CrPC after producing her before the magistrate.  He said that the woman accused seven people of which three of them have been arrested

On alleged gangrape in a Hotel in Karnataka's Haveri, BJP Leader Shehzad Poonawalla said, "In Karnataka, the shocking moral policing incident involving 7 men has now taken a more serious proportion. Not only did these men barge into the room of an interfaith couple, assault them, beat up the young Muslim woman, dragged her out, and made a video out of it, but the woman has now complained that she has been gang raped."

"This is the level of law and order in Karnataka. But the voluble and loud Priyanka Vadra, Rahul Gandhi, Congress ecosystem, and spokespersons, all of them are maintaining pin drop silence. Why is it because Karnataka is Congress-ruled or because of the religion of the accused, based on which they will selectively express outreach and selectively remain silent?" he said.
