Rape Case Filed Against Deputy Collector Rajesh Sorte

Bhopal (The Uttam Hindu): A case has been filed against Rajesh Sorte, 47, a deputy collector of Bhopal, for allegedly raping a female government employee after reports say he had entered into a relationship with the complainant when he was the tehsildar in Pachore, Rajgarh district, in 2022. Officials reported on Friday that.

He said Sorte was booked under the Indian Penal Code for the rape charge because the alleged crimes were carried out in 2022, prior to the implementation of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS). Bhaskar, he added, was one of the leaders of the Ravidasiya community from Mandsaur.
