Inquire Into Stalking Allegations Against Sena's Sanjay Raut: Court Orders Mumbai Top Cop

The woman in her plea said she had lodged three complaints in 2013 and 2018, but no action has been taken against the perpetrators so far.

The Bombay High Court today directed Mumbai Commissioner of Police to inquire into a 36-year-old woman's allegations of stalking and harassment by some men at the behest of Shiv Sena MP Sanjay Raut and her estranged husband. A division bench of Justices SS Shinde and NJ Jamadar directed the police commissioner to submit a report to the court on June 24. The court was hearing a petition filed in February this year by the woman, a psychologist by profession, claiming that she was being stalked and harassed by unknown men at the behest of Sanjay Raut, who is a Rajya Sabha member, and her estranged husband. The woman's advocate Abha Singh told the High Court today that after the petition was filed, the woman was recently arrested in a non-cognisable case, where it has been alleged that she procured a fake Ph.D degree.
