New Delhi: According to a report, Talib Hussain, the activist who rose to fame for spearheading a campaign seeking justice for Kathua rape victim Asifa, has been accused of rape by a student of Jawaharlal Nehru University in Delhi. This is the second time the activist is being accused of rape.
The student who has accused Talib of rape gave a first person account to news website FirstPost.
As reported by FirstPost, she said, "I was one of those students who had invited him to JNU campus. But subsequently, in his personal conversations with me, he proved to be very invasive of personal boundaries. He asked me a lot of questions about my family, my research work, and my political beliefs. I would not have minded any of this had he not abruptly asked me one day to do "nikaah" with him... Often he would call me late at night; while I enquired about his safety... he would ignore my concerned questions and describe his sexual fantasies about me.
"On 27 April, he messaged me to say that he would be arriving in Delhi that evening and that I should meet him. I did not want to; instead, I went out for dinner with some of my friends. But he called me and insisted that he would come to JNU itself to meet me... he kept calling me non-stop, insisting that I should return to campus at once because he was waiting outside the north gate for me...He called me 40 times that night (I noted this on my call log the next day).Eventually, I gave in, and went to meet him, ignoring my own uneasy premonition of danger. I asked a friend to drop me outside the JNU main gate; he was waiting in a rented car a little distance away from the gate. He asked me to get inside the car and I obeyed himme for spearheading a campaign seeking justice for Kathua rape victim Asifa, has been accused of rape by a student of Jawaharlal Nehru University in Delhi.
