Chinmayanand Case Victim Wants Rape Charges in FIR Filed Against Him

Prayagraj: The law student, who had accused former Union Minister Chinmayanand of sexual harassment, has submitted a ‘miscellaneous application’ in the Allahabad High Court, seeking inclusion of rape charges in the FIR filed against him.

The court has sought the state government’s reply on her application.

Sources said the FIR against Chinmayanand does not include rape charges and the law student wants him to be charged with rape.

According to legal experts, a miscellaneous application is a “formal expression of the request submitted by way of an application, filed before the criminal court in or otherwise in the criminal proceedings on different actions of reliefs for some privilege, right, benefit or for an action”.

Meanwhile, the Special Investigating Team (SIT) on Tuesday submitted its progress report in the case to the court in a sealed envelope. (IANS)
