Actor and newly elected Bharatiya Janata Party MP Kangana Ranaut called out those backing the suspended Central Industrial Security Force constable for slapping her and likened the attack to rape.

The Mandi MP tweeted, “Every rapist, murderer or thief always have a strong emotional, physical, psychological or financial reason to commit a crime, no crime ever happens without a reason, yet they are convicted and sentenced to jail (sic).”

Ranaut said, “If you are aligned with the criminals’ strong emotional impulse to commit a crime violating all laws of the land, remember, if you are ok(ay) with breaking into someone’s intimate zone, without their permission touching their bodies and assaulting them, then deep down you are ok(ay) with rape or murder, also because that’s also just penetration or stab only what big deal.”

The BJP leader said persons who back the constable must look deeper into their psychological criminal tendencies. “I suggest, please take up yoga and meditation or else, life will become a bitter and burdensome experience, don’t carry so much grudge, hate and jealousy please, free yourself,” she said.

The new-elected BJP MP was allegedly assaulted by a CISF woman constable during a security check at the Chandigarh airport on Thursday. 

A scuffle had occurred at the security check between the actor-turned-politician and the suspended CISF personnel Kulwinder Kaur when the former, reportedly, refused to put her phone in the tray. Kaur was arrested on Friday.
