Student who accused Chinmayanand of rape turns hostile in court

The LLM student categorically denied in court that she had levelled any allegation against former Union minister Chinmayanand

A 23-year-old law student, who had last year accused former BJP MP Chinmayanand of rape, turned hostile at a hearing in a special court in Lucknow on Tuesday. The LLM student categorically denied that she had levelled any allegation against the former Union minister. The student now faces a perjury charge. 72-year-old Chinmayanand was arrested last year in the rape case, and was granted bail in February. Earlier in her statement to cops and then before a magistrate the woman had accused Chinmayanand&nbsp;of sexually abusing and threatening her.&nbsp;

Lucknow, PTI: In a courtroom twist Tuesday to the high-profile case, a law student who had accused former Union minister Chinmayanand of sexually exploiting her disowned her statements to police and now faces a perjury charge.
Appearing before an MP-MLA court in Lucknow, the LLM student categorically denied that she had levelled any allegation against the former Union minister as the prosecution had charged.
At this, the prosecution immediately moved an application under Section 340 of the CrPC, seeking action against her for perjury.
Judge P K Rai directed his office to register the application and asked the prosecution to furnish a copy of the application to the victim and the accused.
The court fixed October 15 for hearing on the application.
The Allahabad High Court in February this year granted bail to Chinmayanand, whose trust runs the Shahjahanpur law college where the woman studied. He was arrested in September last year.
The case was registered under Section 376-C of the IPC, an offence pertaining to the abuse of one's position by a person in authority to "induce or seduce" a woman under his charge to have "sexual intercourse not amounting to the offence of rape".
Chinmayanand (72) also faced charges under Sections 342 (wrongful confinement), 354-D (stalking) and 506 (criminal intimidation) of the IPC.
According to government lawyer Abhay Tripathi, the victim had lodged an FIR in this regard with the Lodhi Colony police station of New Delhi on September 5, 2019.
Her father lodged another complaint in Shahjahanpur and both FIRs were merged.
An SIT had recorded her statement. Later, her statement under Section 164 of the CrPC was recorded in Shahjahanpur.
In both statements, she had supported the FIR version but now during the trial, she changed her statement and denied the facts mentioned in the complaint.
&ldquo;Since she has turned hostile, I have moved an application under Section 340 of the CrPC,&rdquo; Tripathi said.
Earlier, the investigation officer had cited 33 witnesses and 29 documentary evidence in the 13-page charge sheet.
The Allahabad high court had on February 3, 2020 transferred the trial from Shahjahanpur to the Lucknow's MP-MLA court.
The case first came to light after the woman went missing on August 24, a day after she posted a video on social media alleging that a "senior leader of the sant community" was harassing and threatening to kill her.
