She underlined that when the victim reached the police station to register her complaint, the police did not extend coordination to her. Gorhe also demanded action against the in charge of the police station.
The accused Dhume was in the good books of the key officers at the city police commissionerate. Hence the inquiry of these officials should also be made. Dhume had faced inquiry in Ahmednagar. Now, stern action should be taken against him.
Why no action has been taken against the hotel owner?
