A week after being served disciplinary notice by the state BJP for remarks against the party after the Gurjjar agitation, Sikraya MLA Ram Kishore Meena is in fresh trouble.

The Crime Branch has initiated an inquiry against Meena for allegedly molesting a Jaipur-based woman and threatening to kill her when she refused to give in to his demands. The 42-year-old woman, a resident of Malviya Nagar in the city, had approached an organisation with which Meena is associated in April seeking financial help to get her daughters married.

The woman alleges that though Meena did provide help, he also made advances and threatened her, following which she filed a complaint against him. When the police took no notice, she approached the court.

Two days before the weddings of her daughters on April 30, he came over and handed over 21 saris. On April 30, he rreturned with the two other accused and handed over some money and other items.
