NDTV
Navneet Rana said her complaint of being subjected to ill-treatment is not about the detention at Khar police station, but about the lock-up at Santacruz police station
Hours after Mumbai Police Commissioner Sanjay Pandey tweeted a video of MP Navneet Rana and her MLA husband Ravi Rana sipping tea while in police custody, the MP on Tuesday issued a clarification through her lawyer claiming "ill-treatment" in the lock-up of Santacruz police station after her arrest last Saturday, and not at Khar police station.

The Independent MP from Amravati had earlier written to Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla claiming "inhuman treatment" in "Khar police station" after her "illegal arrest", where she said she was denied water to drink and faced casteist slurs.
Advocate Rizwan Merchant, representing Navneet Rana and her MLA husband Ravi Rana in courts, said, "It appears that there is some tweet which is being floated around on social media through police commissioner Sanjay Pandey about the complaint made by (Navneet) Rana in regards to grievances of being subjected to ill-treatment while in police custody by not being provided basic facilities like water, toilet etc...
"I just want to clarify that the tweet of Sanjay Pandey sir is about the time spent by my client at Khar police station after being arrested. The officers did offer tea, there is no doubt about it. But they (the Rana couple) were at Khar police station till 1 am. Approximately, after 1 am, they (the Rana couple) were transferred to the lock-up of Santacruz police station where they were detained for the rest of the night until they were produced before court," Mr Merchant said.
