Warning graphic content: Video of cop's son assaulting woman in Delhi goes viral; Rajnath calls for action

Sep 14 (AZINS) The West Delhi police have registered an FIR against one Rohit Singh Tomar after a woman filed a complaint following a viral video doing the rounds where Tomar is seen brutally assaulting another woman.

The cops have said that they have taken stern action. "A case under section 354/506 IPC has already been registered against Rohit Tomar. Further action is being taken to arrest him."

According to a report in The Print, the accused, Tomar, the son of a policeman, had assaulted the woman to scare his ex-girlfriend, who happens to be the complainant, into marrying him.

That report has also identified Tomar as Rohit Chaudhary, the son of Delhi police sub-inspector Ashok Kumar Chaudhary.

The woman filed the complaint after Tomar sent her a video 15 days ago that showed him assaulting a woman. He had allegedly threatened that she would meet the same fate if she did not marry him. Meanwhile, Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh said he saw the video and has asked for immediate action.

The video found its way to a Facebook page called ‘Turban and Beard’ on Thursday, and went viral.

A case has been registered against Tomar at the Tilak Nagar police station, and investigations are on.
