Pachauri questioned by Delhi Police

June 24, 2015 21:31

Former TERI director Pachauri was today questioned by Delhi Police in connection with the alleged sexual harassment case lodged against him by a woman research analyst.

Sources said 74-year-old Pachauri was questioned at his posh Golf Link residence here by a three-member police team which carried a questionnaire consisting of nearly 50 questions covering different aspects of the charges leveled against him by the researcher.

"He was asked specific questions about his claims that his various social media accounts were hacked by someone to send objectionable messages to the victim," a source said while declining to elaborate on Pachauri's responses to the questions.

Investigators had already sent Pachauri's mobile and laptop, submitted to police by him, for forensic analysis as he claimed that he was a victim of hacking and his computer resources were misused and filed a police complaint in this regard as well.

A senior officer associated with the investigations said that the questioning of Pachauri is not yet complete and they may again grill him soon.
