The incident occurred on March 14th night. The police had previously claimed that the girl died in a car accident.
However, the situation changed when the woman’s father filed a complaint against the man, Mohit Kumar, a member of the Saini group.
The culprit has been detained and placed in judicial custody, according to Bijnor SP Dharamveer Singh.
“An FIR under the SC/ST Act and sections 323, 504, 506, 306 of the IPC have been registered against him,” the SP said.
