Shimla/IBNS: Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)'s Haryana unit chief Mohanlal Badoli and a singer named Jai Bhagwan alias Rocky have been charged with gang rape in Himachal Pradesh's Kasauli, media reports said.

The two have been accused of gangraping a woman at a hotel in Kasauli.

As per the complaint, the woman was staying at the hotel along with her boss and friend when they met the two accused on July 3, 2023.

The alleged victim, her friend and the two accused went into a room later.
