Rahul had earlier attacked PM Modi on the shelter home sex scandal cases in Bihar and Uttar Pradesh. 

The Congress had on Monday also demanded imposition of President’s Rule in Haryana, alleging that the BJP-led state government had completely failed to tackle the law and order situation.

Last Wednesday, a 19-year-old woman was allegedly kidnapped and gang-raped at Kanina in Haryana’s Mahendergarh district. Four accused have been arrested so far in connection with the case. 

A SIT team, headed by Mewat Superintendent of Police (SP) Naazneen Bhasin, is probing the matter.

Haryana Police had on Saturday released photographs of three accused. They were identified as – Manish, Nishu and  Pankaj – a defence personnel stationed in Rajasthan. 

A bounty of Rs one lakh was also announced on the accused and for helping the police in cracking the case.

The young woman had gone to attend a coaching class and was waiting at a bus-stop in Kanina when she was abducted.

She was allegedly kidnapped by the accused who arrived in a car and was taken to a secluded place where she was gang-raped after being offered a drink laced with sedatives, the survivor alleged in her complaint. 

The accused left her near a bus stop in Kanina later that day.
