Wife Alleges - Complaint Filed at the Police Station Went Unheard
Suresh Kumar Yoddha's wife has leveled serious allegations against the Unnao police. She stated that after the assault, she had lodged a complaint at the Soharamau police station, but the police failed to take any action. Instead, they allegedly dismissed her and didn't pay heed to her plea. The wife further claimed that the police had a connection with the accused individuals. She had been shuttling between the hospital and the police station, seeking justice, but her efforts were in vain.
