Rape case: Army to take ``stern action''
New Delhi
Oct. 9.
The Army Chief, Gen. N.C. Vij, today condemned the rape of a college girl allegedly by four soldiers of the Presidential Guards here on Monday and promised ``most stern action'' against them once legal process got under way.
Taking a serious view of the incident, he told reporters on the sidelines of an NCC function here that Army action would have been severe if the crime had been committed in an Army area. ``Then we could have invoked the Army Act. But in the present circumstances, as the area of the crime is a civilian area, we have to await the legal process to get under way,'' he said.
