Main accused in Patna sex racket threatens to expose politicos, cops

The main accused in the sex racket in Patna has threatened to upload video clips of the politicians and police officers involved in the case, if he is forced to surrender.

Nikhil Priyadarshi, son of a retired IAS officer, is absconding.

He came into limelight after a minor Dalit girl, who is the daughter of a senior Congress leader and former Bihar minister, lodged an FIR against Priyadarshi and some of his high-profile friends, including former Bihar Congress leader Brajesh Pandey.

She charged them with sexually exploiting her, and also accused Priyadarshi of running a sex racket.

The accused have been booked under the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act.

However, the CID’s Special Investigation Team, which is probing the case, has so far failed to make any arrests. A special police team conducted raids at Shimla, but the main accused managed to flee.

Priyadarshi then called a local daily and threatened to upload video clippings of all those involved in the sex scandal.
