Ayodhya rape case: SP 'protecting rapists', says Keshav Maurya; Shivpal demands Dy CM's narco test
LUCKNOW: Uttar Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister Keshav Prasad Maurya on Saturday accused the Samajwadi Party of "protecting rapists" after its chief Akhilesh Yadav demanded a DNA test of the accused in the Ayodhya gang-rape case in which the 12-year-old victim became pregnant.
Hitting back, senior Samajwadi Party leader Shivpal Singh Yadav sought a narco test of Maurya "to make it clear who is doing cheap politics on sensitive issues".
Ayodhya police on July 30 arrested Moid Khan, who runs a bakery in Bhadarsa Nagar of Purakalandar police station area of the district, and his employee Raju Khan for allegedly raping the minor two months ago and recording the act.
