Punishment not adequate in Ruchika molestation case: Chautala | Former Haryana Chief Minister Om Prakash Chautala on Tuesday said on the Ruchika molestation case that the punishment given to the accused-- former Director General of Police (DGP) SPS Rathore-- was not adequate. Earlier on Tuesday, Chautala had said that he did not have enough time
to discuss such frivolous issues. Chautala's statement comes in the backdrop of
a verdict made on Monday against Rathore, who was handed out a fine of Rs 1000
and a six-month jail term for the crime committed 19 years ago. Chautala was then
chief minister of the state. The Rajya Sabha also discussed the Ruchika molestation
case today. Rathore allegedly molested teenager Ruchika Girhotra, a promising
young tennis star in 1990. He was then an Inspector General of Police and the
head of the Haryana's Lawn Tennis Federation. Teenager Ruchika killed herself
three years later by drinking poison. Ruchika's family has said that the police
constantly harassed them not to file a case against Rathore. |
