In a shocking development, an Indian Army soldier from Kashmir has alleged that his wife was assaulted by over 100 people in the state of Tamil Nadu. In a video posted by B Devendiran, a Twitter user, the soldier has also made an earnest public appeal to the state government to help him save his family as no action has been taken by the police in this matter.
The soldier's name is A Prabhakaran and he hails from the Patavedu village of Polur Taluka in Tiruvannamalai District of Tamil Nadu. He is currently posted in Kashmir.
K Annamalai speaks to Army Jawan
Tamil Nadu BJP State President K Annamalai said that he has spoken to the Indian Army soldier and has assured him justice in this matter.
He said in a tweet, "Had a telephonic conversation with the Havildar, who is bravely serving our country in Kashmir and his wife, based out of Tiruvannamalai. Truly gutted to hear her story & I felt ashamed that this had happened to her on our Tamil soil! Our party people are rushing to attend to her now, who is admitted in a hospital in Vellore. @BJP4TamilNadu will stand with her & our Havildar’s family in getting justice for her."
