Former BJP MLA Suresh Rathore Detained Over Controversial 'VIP' Clips in Ankita Bhandari Murder Case

Former BJP MLA Suresh Rathore was arrested over viral clips linking a VIP to the 2022 Ankita Bhandari murder. Police say he named BJP leader Dushyant Gautam, who filed a defamation complaint. Rathore denied releasing clips, apologized vaguely, and cited a High Court relief in two of four FIRs. The case followed Bhandari’s killing at a resort; its owner, Pulkit Arya, was convicted. Circulating objectionable content allegedly targeted BJP leaders, raising political controversy.
