Earlier, on April 12, 2018, defending BJP MLA Kuldeep Singh Sengar, who has been accused of raping an 18-year-old woman in 2017, Singh had said that the Unnao rape victim had filed a “false rape case” against a man in the past.
“I have heard that the same girl had filed a false rape case against a man some years back, because of which the man had to spend six months in jail,” he had told ANI.
“I am speaking from a psychological point of view; no one can rape a mother of three children. It is not possible, this is a conspiracy against him (Sengar).”
