Delhi's former women's minister, Sandeep Kumar, was arrested on charges of rape on 3 September and assigned to one-day police custody on 4 September. The rape accusation comes after he was fired from his job over the emergence of a sex tape, which was leaked on national television channels.
The woman who filed the rape complaint is believed to be one of the women in the leaked sex tape and Delhi Police urged the court to remand Kumar so they could further investigate the case. The woman who made the rape complaint also alleged that Kumar offered her a spiked drink, after which she says she could not recall what happened to her and how she then proceeded to act.
Kumar has defended himself, saying that he was not fired but that he resigned. He also said that he was being targeted for being a Dalit, the lowest member of India's caste system. Meanwhile, Kumar's wife has insisted that her husband is innocent and has been "falsely implicated".
Speaking to local media in India, Ritu Kumar said: "My husband is innocent, I stand by him. Rape charges against my husband are wrong." Full story...
