Former block pramukh Nawab Singh Yadav was arrested on charges of raping a minor girl in Kannauj, Uttar Pradesh. In this case, officials said that after the court’s order, the police took Nawab Singh Yadav’s DNA sample on Friday. The police along with a team of doctors reached the district jail to take the sample.
According to the agency, Circle Officer (CO) of Kannauj Sadar, Kamlesh Kumar, said that during the hearing in the court on Friday, Nawab Singh Yadav agreed to give DNA sample on the judge’s order. The CO said that after Nawab Singh Yadav’s consent, the police team along with doctors went to the district jail in Anaugi to take the sample. The sample has been sealed and sent to the forensic lab for investigation.
Let us tell you that former block chief Nawab Singh Yadav, who runs a private educational institution and was a leader of the Samajwadi Party, is accused of raping a minor on the pretext of getting her a job.
SP Amit Kumar Anand said that the victim has undergone a medical examination with the consent of her parents, which has confirmed the rape. The SP said that the girl has mentioned the rape in her statement before the magistrate. Along with the confirmation of rape, additional sections have been registered against the accused.
After this case of rape of a minor in Kannauj came to light, a political controversy has started. The ruling BJP has alleged that Nawab Singh Yadav was once an associate of SP leader Dimple Yadav when she was an MP from Kannauj. However, the SP has distanced itself from Nawab Singh Yadav when Nawab Singh was arrested on Monday.
