A Dalit woman from a village in the Inayatnagar police station area has accused a young man of rape, prolonged exploitation, assault, and death threats on the pretext of getting her a job. Based on the victim's complaint, the police have registered a case against the accused under various sections and have started an investigation.
In her complaint to the police, the victim stated that about six months ago, Ram Avtar, a resident of Mukimpur village, promised to get her a job. On this pretext, he took her to his house, where he allegedly drugged her and raped her. The woman alleges that the accused threatened to defame her by making the pictures of the incident public, due to which she continued to be exploited for six months.
According to the victim, on Wednesday, the accused again called her to his room and tried to force her into an illegal relationship. When the woman resisted, the accused abused her with casteist slurs, brutally assaulted her, and threatened to kill her. Due to fear, the victim did not inform her husband about the incident at that time.
The woman later reached the Inayatnagar police station and filed a complaint. Considering the seriousness of the matter, the police have registered a case against the accused under sections related to rape, assault, threats, and the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities) Act, among other relevant sections.
In this regard, Inayatnagar Station House Officer Ratan Kumar Sharma said that a case has been registered based on the victim’s complaint. The matter is being investigated thoroughly, and further legal action will be taken based on the evidence.
