"This issue is not of Subhash Barala. It is an individual issue and law will take its own course," said the Chief Minister in response to opposition demands to remove the BJP chief from his post.
The police have charged Vikas Barala and his friend Ashish Kumar of stalking and drink driving. The more serious charge of abduction was not added since it was not in the woman's initial statement, the police said.
In her post, the woman had said post-midnight on Saturday, she was followed by the car of the assailants from a petrol pump. The two men repeatedly blocked her car and tried to corner her. Twice, one of the men got off the car and came towards her. When the police reached her, following her frantic calls, he was banging on her window and trying to open the door.
The young woman, who is the daughter of a bureaucrat, said she got lucky because of her privileged position in life. "I'm lucky, it seems, to not be the daughter of a common man, because what chance would they have against such VIPs?" she wrote in the post that was widely shared over the week-end. She added that she was also "lucky", because "I'm not lying raped and murdered in a ditch somewhere".
