The Rajasthan government on Tuesday issued an order for appointment of the Alwar gang-rape victim as a police constable.
“The order to appoint the victim as a police constable has been issued. She will soon get the letter,” Additional Chief Secretary (Home) Rajeeva Swarup said.
The Dalit woman was allegedly raped by five men in the Thanagaji area of Alwar on April 26 in front of her husband.
On the day, the woman was going with her husband on a motorcycle when the accused stopped them and took them to a secluded area. They allegedly thrashed the woman’s husband, tied him up and raped her in front of him.
The couple was held captive for nearly three hours.
A sixth accused shot a video of the incident and later circulated it on social media.
