UN Water invited convicted rapist Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh and his daughter Honeypreet for an event
After facing backlash for inviting convicted rapist Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh and his daughter Honeypreet for an international event, United Nations-Water was forced to delete the tweets posted earlier today on their verified Twitter account. For the World Toilet Day event to be held next month, the UN body had tagged the
Dera Sacha Sauda chief and his daughter asking for their support for the event.
Although deleted, it's not clear whether the tweets were intentional or a result of a possible hack. Many on Twitter even questioned if the person handling the account even knew if Gurmeet Ram Rahim was in jail and that his daughter was arrested yesterday.
Honeypreet or Papa's Angel as she calls herself, was
arrested yesterday after a month-long hunt by cops. She has been charged with sedition and was questioned till 3am for her role in the rioting by Dera followers outside Panchkula court after her father was convicted for raping two followers.
UN-Water monitors the international organisation's work in sanitation and water related issues. In 2013, the United Nations General Assembly officially designated November 19 as World Toilet Day which is
coordinated by UN-Water in collaboration with governments and partners.
