Police today provided call details of four mobile phone SIMs, two each of Congress MLA Udai Lal Anjana and the woman he is accused of sexually exploiting, to the officer investigating the case.
The SIMs were provided by Superintendent of Police Nagaur to the investigating officer Criminal Investigation Department-Crime Branch (CID-CB).
The SP of Nagaur was asked by CID-CB to provide mobile phone call details of the Congress MLA and the victim.
Meanwhile, a police spokesman said that sleuths of CID-CB were trying to locate the victim to record her statement, but she was not approachable since she had filed the FIR on September 20.
Anjana, MLA from Nimbahera in Chittorgarh district, was booked for allegedly sexually exploiting a nearly 50-year-old woman since 1984 on the pretext of marriage and forcing her to undergo abortion, charges which he denied.
The woman, a resident of Mundwa area, had approached a local court in Nagaur, seeking a case to be registered against Anjana. The case was registered in Mundwa following the court's order.
The case was transferred to the CB-CID as it was related to an MLA, a police officer said.
Anjana has claimed the charges were baseless and were part of a political conspiracy.
He also claimed that the woman had made similar accusations in 2000 and said they had been proved wrong by various agencies.
