Another woman gang-raped in Haryana: Sixth case recorded in four days
In another case that highlights the lack of women’s safety in Haryana, a Gurugram college student was pulled into a car earlier this week and raped by two of her captors.
According to a report in The Times of India, the abduction happened at around 2 pm at Farrukhnagar. The two men drove into a nearby forested stretch, parked their car by the roadside and raped the woman. They then threw her out of the car and returned her clothes only after she agreed not to tell anyone.
A police complaint was filed only on Thursday when the woman told her father about it.
The case is the sixth rape case reported in Haryana since January 13, when a woman was found gang-raped and murdered near a canal.
Earlier, amid mounting attack from the opposition over deteriorating law and order, Haryana Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar said, “Such incidents are unfortunate. We’ll take strict action and tie up all loose ends.
