JAIPUR: A 19-year-old girl from Churu was raped allegedly by seven persons after being held captive for nearly a week. According to the complainant, she was raped in Rajgarh as well as in Jaipur. Her family had filed a missing person report on September 24. Cops have arrested one accused and detained three others.
“The girl was found on October 1. She claimed that she had an argument with her family and left the house. On October 5, she again went to the local police station and filed a case of gang-rape,” said Churu SP Paris Deshmukh.
The complainant lodged a case against seven persons, out of which three were known to her. “The girl was in touch with three of the accused for the last one year and alleged that the accused first raped her in Churu’s Rajgarh and then in Jaipur,” the official said.
According to the complainant, the accused kept her in a sedated state and raped her for a week but she appeared to have no knowledge as to how she reached Jaipur. Her medical examination was conducted and a statement recorded.
“The girl could name most of the accused. She also alleged that there were others who sexually assaulted her during the week," said the official.
Rajsamand MP and BJP state general secretary Diya Kumari met the governor on Wednesday and submitted a memorandum demanding prevention of crimes against women and girls and strict action against criminals. During the meeting, the MP said in the past few months, the number of crimes like rape, murder and kidnapping of women and minor girls had increased.
