CHANDIGARH: Vikas Barala, the son of Haryana BJP chief Subhash Barala, was charged today with attempt to kidnap, days after he allegedly stalked a woman and followed her car on the streets of Chandigarh.
The 23-year-old law student was earlier charged with stalking and drink driving. A tougher charge was added today when he arrived at a police station for questioning, nearly three hours after his deadline.
“The moment we learnt about the notice, Vikas headed for Chandigarh. He will cooperate fully with the police,” Mr Barala told reporters, even pausing to take a call from his son during the press conference.
Vikas and his friend Ashish are out on bail after they were arrested by a police patrol team on Saturday following their chilling high-speed chase that the police say has been recorded on six CCTV cameras. (agencies)
