AAP woman activist commits suicide

A woman activist of the Aam Aadmi Party allegedly committed suicide in Narela area of Delhi yesterday. Her family members claimed that she had gone into depression after her alleged molester, a party colleague, was released on bail. Police said the woman consumed poisonous substance at her home and died during the treatment. The woman had filed a complaint against party colleague Ramesh Wadhwa over molestation charge in June this year. She had alleged that the accused was being protected by the local MLA.<br/><br/>Meanwhile, BJP alleged that AAP leaders had ignored her harassment complaint. Delhi BJP President Satish Upadhyay in a statement blamed Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and local MLA Sharad Chauhan are responsible for her death. However, AAP refuted the allegations and accused BJP of playing politics over her death. AAP spokesperson Deepak Bajpai said there was no mention of the MLA's name in any of the complainants.
