Notably, as per earlier information, a woman had also accused Rizwan of rape. According to the woman, when she came to Patna 11 years ago, Rizwan was a TV journalist and had raped her. Later this woman went to jail and in the jail itself, she came to know about her pregnancy. Now, this woman alleges that Danish is the father of her child. She is demanding a DNA test as well.
