Overview
- An ACJM court in Kasauli on Thursday accepted a police cancellation report, issuing a second clean chit to Mohan Lal Badoli and Jai Bhagwan (Rocky Mittal).
- Kasauli police told the court they could not collect evidence to substantiate the allegations, and the complainant did not turn up despite being given an opportunity to do so.
- The FIR was filed on December 13, 2024, nearly 17 months after the woman alleged she was raped at a Kasauli hotel in July 2023.
- Investigators recorded that the woman refused a medical examination, the hotel’s CCTV footage was unavailable, the cited eyewitness denied the incident, and the employer who accompanied her did not corroborate her account.
- The court had first accepted a closure report on March 12, 2025; after a revision petition in July 2025 reopened the matter for her objections, the court again upheld the police’s cancellation.
