Ghaziabad: An 18-year-old woman who had gone to a park near her house for an evening walk with her six-year-old sister was allegedly abducted and raped at gunpoint by three youths, including two minors, inside a dilapidated building in Indirapuram. Two of the accused have been detained for questioning, police said.
The woman’s father has alleged that the crime took place on June 27 but the police made them run from pillar to post to get an FIR registered. Cops, however, said the woman’s family had earlier reported molestation and on that basis, an FIR under relevant sections was already registered at Indirapuram police station on Tuesday.
In the complaint, the woman’s father has alleged that following a power cut in the area on the evening of June 27, his eldest daughter along with her six-year-old sister had gone to a nearby park for a walk. Around 6.30 pm, the three youths, who were lurking in the park, blocked her way, took her to a nearby building and raped her at gunpoint.
“My younger daughter witnessed the crime and rushed home to alert her mother. At that time, I was at work. My wife went to the spot and found my daughter lying in an unconscious state. She even grabbed one of the accused from behind, but he managed to flee,” he said. “Later in the evening, we went to the local police post to lodge a complaint. The cops present there took our complaint, but did not register an FIR,” he claimed. It was only after the Ghaziabad SSP’s invention that cops swung into action, he said. Police, however, claimed on the initial complaint of the girl’s family, an FIR under IPC sections 354A (sexual harassment and punishment for sexual harassment) and 354B (assault or use of criminal force to woman with intent to disrobe) was registered at Indirapuram police station on Tuesday. Abhay Khand police post in-charge Prahlad Singh, who is investigating the case, said two of the accused, including a minor, has been detained for questioning. “The third one, who is also a minor, is on run,” he said.
