A gang of seven men had reportedly taken turns to rape an 18-year-old newlywed woman after they stormed her home and dragged her to the field close to her home where they committed the crime.
The victim was rushed to the hospital where she is currently undergoing treatment after the encounter which happened on the night of Saturday, January 17 2015 in Bhithali village of Shinor taluka, India.
According to The Times of India, the rogues broke into the house when the newly wed and family were fast asleep and dragged her to an open field nearby where they raped her one after the other.
It was learnt that it was just few days after the young couple and in-laws relocated to the area before the tragedy struck.
The police were called by the farm owner after her husband ran to inform him.
While describing the ugly incident, Shinor police sub-inspector J M Waghela said, “The woman was dragged to an isolated place in the fields by the accused. She was later found about 1.5 km far from her dwelling.”
“The accused had their faces covered and threatened to kill them before they abducted the woman and gang-raped her. The family is in state of shock.”.
“According to the complainant, the seven accused were between the age of 25 and 30. Investigations are on to identify the accused. We are also awaiting the victim’s medical reports.”
