Rajasthan Police Questions Sacked Minister Gudha In POCSO Case After He Revealed Pages From Claimed Red Diary

Jodhpur Police arrived at former Rajasthan Minister Rajendra Singh Gudha's residence on Thursday morning (3 August) regarding a case under the POCSO (Protection of Children from Sexual Offences) Act.

This comes a day after he revealed a few pages of the claimed red diary and alleged corruption in Rajasthan Cricket Association (RCA) elections.

Gudha was also questioned by the police. Media portals are speculating that major action may be taken against Gudha soon as he has opened a front against the state government for the past few days.

Police said that a case under POCSO Act is registered against Gudha and they are investigating it. Officials didn't provide any further information.

According to Hindustan, the police arrived at Gudha's residence on Wednesday night only but waited for him as he was not at his residence.

While Gudha hasn't responded till now, he had earlier accused Ashok Gehlot cabinet ministers of rape charges and demanded their narco tests.

In yesterday's press conference, Gudha said that he himself is ready for a narco test and will reveal things one by one with facts.

He also accused the Congress government in Rajasthan of pressuring him and suggested that the party leaders were attempting to blackmail him.

Political observers perceive the police case against Gudha as a pressure tactic as the former minister had threatened to reveal more pages from the red diary.

It may be recalled that a few days ago, Gudha had cornered his own government in the Assembly over crimes against women in the state.

The CM removed him from the cabinet following this incident and he was later suspended from the Assembly when he waved a red diary in the house accusing Gehlot of corruption.
