Rahul Shewale, a Lok Sabha member from the Eknath Shinde-led Shiv Sena, on Sunday demanded a National Investigation Agency probe into the complaint of rape filed against him by a woman, who he alleged had links with Pakistan and Dawood Ibrahim. Addressing a press conference, Shewale said he has made the demand to state Chief Minister Eknath Shinde and Deputy CM and Home Minister Devendra Fadnavis.
“The woman is making baseless allegations against me...She is a habitual complainant and has been harassing me and my family for the past two years. She has links with Pakistan and (fugitive gangster) Dawood Ibrahim. She is misusing the help I provided during the Covid-19 pandemic and wants to finish my political career,” Shwale claimed. A court in Andheri has directed that a case be filed against the woman, he said, adding that his wife has filed a complaint against the woman at the Govandi police station.
