Earlier, questions had been raised about the role of Chandigarh police. Initially, police had said that CCTV cameras of the incident site were not working. Later it claimed to have acquired the footage.
Last Friday night, Varnika was riding in her car between 11 and midnight. Two boys followed her and tried to pull her as she entered her gate. She immediately called the police who reached the spot and arrested the two accused.
According to the police, the accused were intoxicated. One of them is the son of BJP chief of Haryana Subhash Barala. The two were presented in Court on Saturday after which they were granted bail.
Now that the CCTV footage has been found in the case, problems can only mount for Vikas Barala and his friend.
