Amritsar, October 5
Gauri Sharma, who was allegedly pushed into the gorge in Kasauli on August 30 by her husband, has urged the Himachal Pradesh Director General of Police (DGP) to constitute a special investigation team (SIT) to probe the matter. The victim had suffered severe injuries and somehow managed to escape.
The incident came to light a few days ago, after the victim had approached the Amritsar police to find her son who has been missing since the incident. In a letter to the Himachal DGP, she alleged the Kasauli police had registered a weak FIR and was helping the accused.
“Call data of my husband and his associates has not been collected till now. The CCTV footage of the hotel, where we stayed is not available,” she said.
She alleged that her husband took her and her son to Kasauli. The victim said a passer-by took her to a hospital and the HP Police shifted her to PGI, Chandigarh.
