FIR says cop molested, CM disputes charge

Conflicting accounts of the alleged molestation of a woman head constable during Monday night's riots in central Nagpur sparked controversy, reports Soumitra Bose. An

FIR

states the

cop

was cornered in a narrow, dimly lit lane, where rioters tore her uniform and molested her. It also mentions obscene gestures and lewd comments directed at other policewomen. However, Fadnavis, who visited the city Saturday to review law-and-order situation, disputed the allegations. "The women cops were only surrounded and targeted with stones by the rioters and not molested," he said.
