New Delhi: The Delhi High Court on Friday pulled up the city police and
questioned as to why self-styled godman Daati Maharaj has not been
arrested yet in connection with a rape case.
The next date of hearing in the case is on July 11.
The Delhi High Court asked, "It has been over a month, why has the accused not been arrested yet?"
On June 26, a city lower court had also questioned the Delhi Police as
to why Daati Maharaj had not been arrested despite search warrants being
issued in the case.
The court also directed the Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP), Crime
branch, to monitor the investigation and file a status or progress
report before the Court every week.
On June 21, the Delhi Commission for Women (DCW), in a letter to the
Delhi Police, had also raised questions regarding the delay in the
arrest of Daati Maharaj.
They also enquired about the failure to send a report of the action taken in the matter within the stipulated time frame.
Daati Maharaj, accused of raping a disciple inside Shani Dham two years
ago, has been booked under Sections 376, 377, 354 and 34 of the Indian
Penal Code (IPC).
The victim had stated that she was also allegedly raped at Gurukul
Ashwasan in Rajasthan's Bal Gram, adding that she did not file a
complaint earlier as she felt intimidated by the self-styled godman.
On June 19, Daati Maharaj went to the Delhi Police Crime Branch in connection with the case.
