Former minister Rajendra Mushahary, 45, has secretly married the teenager he was accused of raping over two years ago. And he has even renamed the boy born to Monila Brahma 18 months back as Highcourt. Mushahary and Brahma's wedding on June 19 before the Kamrup marriage officer is part of one of the most intense rape battles in Assam. While the case was being heard, Monila and Mushahary secretly married under the Special Marriage Act. The marriage came to light this week when Mushahary appeared in court for the hearing of the case. He claimed Monila would withdraw the case now that they were married. "I am the father of Monila's child, and I am a happy family man now," Mushahary said. | |
