Yet, they subjected me to such extreme violence.”She accused the CJP of using Sonam Wangchuk. “That is exactly what I had gone there to tell Sonam Wangchuk: that they are using him, just like they used Anna Hazare…,” Trehan said in an interaction with ANI.Wanchuk, who was on a hunger strike at the site, was forcibly shifted to a government hospital by the Delhi Police on Saturday morning.
