Rape incidences usually happen between known people: Haryana CM Manohar Lal Khattar
Kalka (Haryana), Nov 18: Haryana Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar courted a controversy by making objectionable remarks over rape incidents.
Addressing a gathering on November 15 in Kalka, the Chief Minister said that most of the rape incidences usually happen between known people. "The incidents of rape haven't increased. These used to happen before as well.
Today, only the concerns have grown. 80 to 90 percent of the incidents happen between people who already know each other," Khattar remarked. He further said that most of the incidences are between people who usually spend time together but after some arguments, file a rape complaint.
In September this year, the alleged abduction and gang rape of a 19-year-old girl from Haryana's Rewari had created a nation-wide outrage. Three accused were later arrested in the case.
In another ghastly incident that happened in October this year in the state, a seven year-old girl was allegedly raped while returning from school in Rewari district.

According to the police, Mallikarjuna had failed the PSI examination twice and later falsely projected himself as a PSI. He allegedly conducted photo shoots in his hometown, Siraguppa, wearing a police uniform, baton, cap, and shoes, claiming to be serving as a PSI in Bengaluru.
On December 7, the four accused allegedly went to the house of Naveen in the Vidyaranyapura limits, threatened him with a stick and an iron rod, and claimed they had information that he was selling ganja. Under the pretext of searching, they allegedly extorted ₹87,000 through bank transfer, ₹53,000 in cash kept in the house, and ₹2,000 from his wallet.
Following Naveen’s complaint, Vidyaranyapura police registered a case and launched an operation, leading to the arrest of all four accused. Police have seized ₹45,000 in cash and the car used to commit the crime.
Further investigation is underway.
