In yet another shocking incident, a 21-year-old tribal woman in Rajasthan was allegedly stripped naked and paraded in a village in Pratapgarh district by her husband and in-laws.
The video of the incident has now surfaced on the internet and has gone viral.
Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot addressed the issue and directed the director general of police to send the ADG (Crime) to the spot and take strict action regarding the matter.
Bharatiya Janata Party has however claimed that “Rajasthan is again ashamed”.
So far police have arrested three people in connection to the case, including the woman’s husband, said district superintendent of police Amit Kumar.
According to the police, the accused tried to flee after seeing the cops and got injured.
They are now undergoing treatment at the district hospital in Pratapgarh and later they will be produced in the court.
