Shiv Sena (UBT) Lok Sabha MP Vinayak Raut, his son and five others have been booked by police following allegations of physical, mental and financial harassment of his daughter-in-law, along with accusations of involvement in black magic, a police official said on Sunday. The FIR was filed on June 10 at Kapurbawdi police station by Girija Raut, 38, who is separated from Raut’s son Jitesh, also known as Gitesh, the official added. "The case was registered under Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS) and Maharashtra Prevention and Eradication of Human Sacrifice and other Inhuman, Evil and Aghori Practices and Black Magic Act for physical, mental, and financial torture and also subjecting her to occult rituals," he stated, according to PTI.
What complaint said According to the complaint, Girija Raut alleged that she was married to Gitesh in December 2017 in an arranged marriage, despite the family being aware of his alleged inability to maintain a physical relationship, a police official said. The complaint further claimed that during trips to countries including Australia, New Zealand, Kenya and Thailand, she was allegedly subjected to abuse and assault whenever she raised concerns about the lack of a physical relationship. She was reportedly told that an “external obstacle” was preventing the situation from changing, the official said.
