In her statement to the police, the rape victim stated, “She has been in an affair with Rajput since 2011, and despite promising marriage, he has been raping her and conducting unnatural actions for the past many years.”
She concluded by saying that she would now not marry the actor and the Chattisgarhi actor-director and producer has been arrested.
Rajput was previously sentenced to prison for land fraud.
Rajput made his acting debut with the film “Gaon ke hero seher ke zero,” which was released a few days ago and is currently doing good business in the state.
