Chandigarh stalking case: Vikas Barala, friend Ashish charged with abduction

Vikas Barala was arrested on August 5 on the charges of stalking and harassing an IAS officer's daughter in Chandigarh.

The victim was harassed and stalked by Vikas Barala, a Haryana BJP leader's son in Chandigarh.

Gedi, means a leisurely trip around town, mostly in cars. Old timers still swear by the eateries dotting the routes.

The protesters held candles, posters and placards to highlight the harassment, lewd gestures and molestation faced by women.

The two accused joined the police investigation on Wednesday at the Sector 26 police station.

Police will get two more days to interrogate the duo for stalking 29-year-old Varnika Kundu on Friday.

Subhash Barala, Haryana BJP chief and accused's father, rebuffed the claim of putting pressure on or influencing the police in the case.

The DGP said that the accused will be taken to the place of the incident to reconstruct the scene.

Kundu says the men were intent on abducting her and she was saved only by timely police intervention.
