Three persons allegedly gang-raped a 26-year-old woman in Madhya Pradesh's Gwalior district, a police official said on Thursday.
The incident occurred under the jurisdiction of Morar police station in the district on May 26. The police arrested four accused, three persons involved in the crime and one other who introduced the victim to one of the accused into the matter. The victim is originally a resident of the Betul district and has been living here in Gwalior for the last two years. She pursued nursing training from here. Gwalior Additional Superintendent of Police (ASP) Niranjan Sharma told ANI, "A woman lodged a complaint at Morar police station. She has been living in Gwalior for about 2 years and has done nursing training. She was facing financial challenges for some days. A person named Sonu whom the victim knew from before and who also financially helped her earlier, assured the victim that he had a friend named Naresh Rajput, who would get her a job." "Trusting Sonu, the victim sat in the car with Naresh Rajput and there were two other persons with Naresh in the car. They took the woman to the highway and they gang-raped her. When the victim cried out for help and some people approached the spot, the accused left the girl on the highway and ran away from the spot," Sharma said. "On the complaint of the victim, a case was registered under IPC sections 376 (D), 323, 506 and 120B at Morar police station in the district and started an investigation into the matter. The police arrested all the three rape accused and one of the victim's acquaintances Sonu into the matter," he said. Further investigation into the matter is underway, ASP added. (ANI)
