AAP Punjab Observer Vijay Chauhan accused of sexually harassing maid

Chandigarh: Adding further trouble to an already challenging phase of politics for the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), a Punjab party Observer has been accused of sexually abusing his domestic help.
According to an Aaj Tak report, Vijay Chauhan, an Observer of Sunam as well as Barnala constituency has been accused of raping his maid, who works at his residence.
Shockingly, an audio clip of a telephonic conversation between a local leader Rajwant Singh and the housekeeper has been released in this regard.
In the clip, Rajwant can be heard apparently making efforts to hush up the case and can be heard pressurising the maid for not filing a complaint against Vijay Chauhan.
The rebel group of AAP, that released the audio clip has alleged that senior leaders in the party are aware of Chauhan’s sexual abuse. And hence, the party removed Chauhan from Sunam, Barnala constituencies and appointed him as an Observer of Patiala.
Charges have also been levelled that the sexual assault victim has been given Rs one lakh by the accused to not reveal anything before media and police.
