AHMEDABAD: A 21-year-old
woman filed a complaint for
rape and criminal intimidation against her four
maternal uncles at Shahpur police station on Friday.
Police officials said the girl was allegedly raped in the wee hours of June 1 at her maternal grandmother’s home in the Shahpur .
According to the FIR, the girl was asleep at her grandmother’s home when the four men came in and started abusing her. They overpowered her and raped her.
“The woman stated in her complaint that two of the four held her hands and legs while the other two raped her, in the presence of her grandmother and maternal aunt,” said Shahpur inspector R P Gharsandiya.
Police sources said that the four men — Khalid Qureshi (48), Taviz Qureshi (44), Anis Qureshi (44) and Danish Qureshi (42) — had a property dispute with the girl, which took this ugly turn.“The girl’s grandmother had named the complainant’s brother as heir which did not go down well with her maternal uncles. The woman lost her father four years ago after which her mother remarried. After that, the girl and her two siblings started living with their grandmother. The maternal uncles were aggrieved that the property would go to their nephew, so they started rebuking the girl and her siblings to force them to leave the house,” said a police official.
On May 31, the girl and her maternal uncle once again fought over the property issue at night. Later, the four men allegedly went to her bedroom and committed the crime.
The girl was sent to Civil Hospital for medical examination, after which the four men could be apprehended, said a source.
