According to news agency PTI, the AISA had earlier said that it forwarded the complaint to its Gender Sensitisation Committee against Sexual Harassment for enquiry. The AISA had said that the accused was told not to participate in organisational activities.
A group of women claiming to be JNU students said in a statement, “The survivor faced sexual harassment by the accused touching her inappropriately without consent and grabbing her forcefully from behind and continued this disgusting act.”
“The survivor is also being conveyed through classmates about conspiracies to defame and slut-shame her and her credibility from the grapevine,” PTI quoted the statement.
