The police reported that the complainant alleged that Balasheri (Awana’s mother), brother-in-laws Nakul Awana, Satendar Awana and sisters-in-law beat her up and tried to strangle her after a dowry dispute. According the police, there is a video that shows the accused threatening the complainant. He issued a clarification on his Facebook page:
Press release which I have send to all media .. प्रेस विज्ञप्तिआज कुछ अखबारों म… Posted by Satender Awana on Monday, March 14, 2016
He claims that the dowry allegations were made up on the spot by the complainant when the police arrived. Kavita Krishnan tweeted earlier on Monday:

The DUSU president (and ABVP President 2015) is rather infamous, as journalists from Quint who were at the campus asking students about consensual sex, accused him of abusing them in January this year. “They snatched our questionnaire, and roughed up our cameraman, threateningly circling us. At this point, we were called a variety of names – ranging from “corrupt” to people who clearly had sex freely, and were trying to talk about it “khulle mein” (openly),” the journalists report. In February, according to a report in The Indian Express, Awana had made comments about the JNU students and said, “Our brothers from JNU who went to stand up for the country told us what was happening. If these people are not punished, then we as jagruk yuvaks (awakened youth) will enter their campus and shoot the traitors.”
