It seems AAP’s worries are not going away any time soon. In charge of AAP's student wing based in Lehalkalan, Sangrur, Hardeep Singh is absconding after a minor Dalit girl accused him of attempt to rape.

AAP party members are already facing allegations of bribery, seeking sexual favors from female ticket seekers and sex scandals. Recent scandal of Youth wing leader Hardeep Singh from Sangrur has caused a media frenzy. Hardeep Singh is believed to be close to Arvind Kejriwal who had visited his village in February this year. Some of the top AAP leaders also stayed at his home.

The searches conducted by Sangrur police, after registering a case under various sections of IPC 376, 511, 342, 354B, 506 and 8 (Protection of Children From Sexual Offence Act, 2012), have revealed accused's pictures with top AAP leaders including party's national convener Arvind Kejriwal.

According to the FIR registered at Moonak police station, the incident took place on Friday evening when the victim and her sister had gone to get their passport size photos clicked at his studio.

The victim in her statement to the magistrate said that the accused asked victim's younger sister to stay outside and locked the darkroom from inside. He allegedly kissed her and tried to remove victim's clothes. Victim's sister and parents got the door unlocked after the victim shouted for help.

The accused managed to flee after pushing the victim's father.

AAP is yet to take any action against the accused leader. Sources said the party was conducting internal probe to know the truth before taking any action. The incident has added to the woes of AAP which is facing a rebellion in Punjab's election year over the ticket distribution.
