Non-bailable warrant issued against rape accused Gayatri Prajapati
New Delhi: A non-bailable warrant has been issued against Samajwadi Party leader Gayatri Prajapati on Saturday.
Passport of UP minister, an accused in a rape case, impounded, informed ADG (law and order) Daljit
Chaudhary.
Interestingly, the 16-year-old girl, who was allegedly sexually assaulted and her mother repeatedly gang-
raped by UP minister Gayatri Prajapati and his aides, has been left scarred and lives in constant fear for life.
Eight months after the incident, the teenager is still to overcome the trauma and gets panic attacks, often waking up in the middle of night and trying to run away from her ward at the AIIMS in fits of frenzy.
The nightmare is not over for her yet as she fears that Prajapati's men would come looking for her. She now anxiously wants to see the minister behind bars and justice done to herself and her mother.
"I want to see Prajapati and his men who attempted to rape me behind the bars. He has ruined our lives permanently. We had to leave our hearth and home to save our lives," she said.
Her mother, who claimed to have been repeatedly gang-raped over two years on the promise of a position in the state's ruling Samajwadi Party and sand mining contracts, moved the Supreme Court, which ordered registration of an FIR against the minister and his accomplices in the crime on
February 18.
As the UP police hunts for them, the girl is struggling to come to terms with what happened to her and her mother.
According to the doctors at the AIIMS who are treating her, the girl is in a state of "severe trauma".
"She is living in constant fear. She is unable to sleep at night. Whatever has happened with her and her mother keeps coming back to her. We have put her on medication and she is undergoing behavioural therapy," they said.
They said teams of the UP police had visited the hospital a couple of times to speak to the girl but were denied permission.
