An FIR or First Information Report has been filed by the police.
In a series of tweets targeting the police, Ms Maliwal had commented, "How many Nirbhayas does Delhi want? We all simply wait for the next Nirbhaya to die."
The teenager was on life support for over a month after she was raped repeatedly by a neighbour who had kidnapped her twice. In a dying statement from the hospital bed as she vomited blood, the teen said she was beaten up, raped "several times a day" and forced to drink acid mixed in juice. Her hands and feet were tied up and she was denied food, she alleged.
The Delhi women's panel issued notice to the police, questioning how the girl was kidnapped just before a court hearing, allegedly by the accused.
The girl was first sexually assaulted in December; the accused, Shivshankar, was arrested but let off on bail.
The police claimed that the girl kept changing her statements and denying rape.
