The woman’s lawyer Abha Singh told the court on Tuesday that
her client was recently arrested in a non-cognizable case after she filed a petition alleging that she obtained a fake PhD degree.
“The petitioner is in jail for ten days.
The entire police machinery is after him ever since he filed the petition in the High Court.
This is malicious and retaliatory action.
” The court said that the petitioners can file a separate petition challenging their arrest.
“We direct the Commissioner of Police to inquire into the complaints made in the petition and take appropriate steps,” the bench said.
The Commissioner of Police should give a report in this matter on June 24.
The woman has alleged in the petition that she had made three complaints in 2013 and 2018 but no action was taken against the accused.
When the petition was heard in March, Raut’s lawyer Prasad Dhakefalkar had opposed it and denied all the allegations.
He said that the petitioner is like the daughter of a Shiv Sena leader.
