Police had initially refused to file FIR in Asaram rape case
In August 2013, the police in Jodhpur and Uttar Pradesh's Shahjahanpur had refused to file an FIR in the rape case against self-styled godman Asaram Bapu. The 16-year-old victim's family then travelled to Delhi where the police at Kamla Market station lodged a zero FIR, which is filed irrespective of jurisdiction. The case was later transferred to Jodhpur.
