New Delhi: On Sunday, the accused woman in the honey trap case of Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) MP KC Patel was sent to one day judicial custody by the High Court of Delhi.


She will be produced before the court on Monday.

In a shocking revelation, the court on last Wednesday said that the woman who had “honey- trapped” BJP MP has done the same with over 20 politicians in the past and leveled the charges of sexual assault and molestation against them.

This came a day after the court sent the SC lawyer to five days police custody in connection with the case.

Police teams who went to the woman's residence for investigation found hidden cameras installed in her bedroom, which she used to make use of for honey-trapping the politicians.

As per the cops, she used to first call prominent businessman and politicians including MPs, MLAs at her house in Ghaziabad's Indirapuram, develop a physical relationship by mutual consent and thereafter used to make them get drunk and capture their private moments with the help of CCTV cameras.

"The woman has extorted over 20 politicians and some businessman during the last couple of years. She had in 2014 extorted money from a Uttrakhand MP after filing a false complaint against him of molesting her and criminal intimidation," said a senior police officer.

“She had in 2016 also leveled similar charges against a senior politician, Shadi Lal Batra. But when police had started investigating the case she later denied her charges and backed off to avoid legal action against her”, the officer said.

“In some other cases it has been found that she only leveled charges against some politicians after they refused to accept her extortion demands of huge sum of money to the tune of crores”, the officer said.

"Police are trying to ascertain how many politicians and businessman she had duped with using similar charges. We are suspecting that she and her other accomplices are involved in other cases too," the officer added.

The police teams are also examining her LLB and LLM degrees too, he said.

A court of Special Judge Hemani Malhotra allowed Delhi Police to quiz the lawyer for five days after Public Prosecutor Atul Shrivastava told the court that police required custodial interrogation of the woman to unearth the entire conspiracy.

On the other hand, Police alleged that woman was not co-operating in the investigation which was opposed by her defense counsel who said that she had become the victim of filing a criminal complaint against BJP MP, K.C. Patel.
