Deputy Commissioner of Police (South) Romil Baaniya said the case was registered on Sunday under sections 376, 377, 354 and 34 of the IPC, “a few days after the woman levelled the allegation” against the founder of the Delhi-based Shree Shanidham Trust and his associates.

“The accused shall be questioned in connection with the case soon and further investigation will proceed accordingly,” Baaniya said.
