Janjivan Bureau / Gurugram : A 20-year-old married woman has alleged she was raped by two men, including her neighbour, at a village in Fatehabad district of Haryana, which has seen a spurt of such cases over the past week.
In her police complaint, the woman said the incident took place on Wednesday when she was alone at home. The two accused barged in, she claimed, adding she was threatened with dire consequences if the matter was reported.
Police said the woman had got married six months back.
“We have registered a case of rape against her neighbour and other co-accused. The accused have also been booked under other relevant provisions of the law. They will be arrested soon,” Fatehabad’s SP Deepak Saharan said over phone on Thursday.
The incident came to light today as the victim, a student of BA second-year, approached police saying that she was in trauma since the incident and could not muster courage to report the matter.
The two unidentified accused allegedly abducted her when she was returning from college and refused to leave her saying they had not got a “prey” for the last many days, she claimed.
“The duo pulled me inside the car while I was returning home and before I could realise anything they tore my clothes. They told me to be thankful that it was just two of them and threatened to call 20 more men and murder me after if I resisted or approached police. I was so scared after the incident that I hid in my home for three days,” said the victim.
According to the complaint, it was in the afternoon that while returning to her home in Farukhnagar, a car stopped close to her at Khandewla Chowk. Before the victim could react, she was pulled inside the car and it sped off.
“For hours I was in the car as they took turns in driving and raping me. They seemed habitual offenders who boasted that police could not even touch them and they could get more men to torture me within seconds,” added the victim.
The complaint has sent the entire police department into tizzy. After registering a complaint against unidentified youths, police got conducted a medical examination of the victim and launched a search. Police are looking for available CCTV footage near the crime spot to get leads.
“We have leads about the accused and have zeroed in on their village and will identify and nab them soon,” said local SHO Karan Singh.
