Halwara. A case has been registered against Aam Aadmi Party's Dalit wing chief Meva Singh, a resident of Halwara, from Raikot assembly constituency, under sections of sexual harassment and assault of his former female employee at Thana Sudhar. Police is raiding in search of the accused. It is alleged that Meva Singh also beat the mother of the victim woman. Mother and daughter are admitted in the civil hospital of Raikot. Police have registered a case on the complaint of the victim woman and the MLR.
The victim Amandeep Kaur said in the complaint that she was working in Meva Singh’s photography studio since 2021. He had contracted to pay a salary of Rs 10,000 per month, but used to pay only Rs 5000 per month. During this time, Meva Singh touched her inappropriately. He mentally harassed her to have sex. Fed up with this, on November 6, 2024, she left her job from Meva Singh’s studio and took up a job somewhere else. She pleaded with Meva Singh several times to pay her her six months’ salary, but he would refuse by threatening to kill her.
Now Meva Singh called her to his M-10 restaurant near Rajoana Chowk to pay her the salary. She reached there with her wife. Meva Singh, along with his wife and two other female employees, beat her up. He also tried to kill her by strangulating her. On the other hand, the victim has accused the Sudhar police of being biased in registering a case against only Meva Singh. On the other hand, Jaswinder Singh, in-charge of Sudhar police station, said that if the role of anyone else comes to light, he will also be named in the case.
