Unnao: One after another shameless statements are pouring in from Bharatiya Janta Party MLAs in favour of rape accused MLA Kuldeep Singh Sengar; who allegedly gang-raped an 18-year-old along with his aides.  Defending Sengar, another party MLA from Balia, Surendra Singh made a horrendous statement, saying “who would rape a mother of three?” In a statement issued by Singh to media, he can be heard narrating his philosophy and claiming that is psychologically ‘impossible’. The defiant MLA speaking exclusively to ABP News refused to apologise and  said, "My words are being misunderstood by the media". He further claimed “Kuldeep Sengar is innocent and is being framed falsely”. He also said that his brother may have beaten up victim’s father.
