Tilak Nagar case: 'Public slandering' sending wrong message, says victim

Countering the allegations being made by the family of the accused in the Tilak Nagar eve-teasing case, the victim today said 'public slandering' was sending a wrong message to the women of the country.

Rubbishing the allegations by the family of the accused, she said, "They are his parents. They are bound to protect him. The victim himself would also never want to go to jail."

"Even if I belong to a political party, does it validate the case of eve-teasing?" she asked.

The victim also rubbished speculations that her move was an attempt to grab limelight ahead of the Delhi University polls.

"The college to which I belong is not a part of Delhi University Students Union and thus I cannot be a part of any university election," she said.
