Mohali, October 31

A 22-year-old girl was allegedly raped by her friend at gunpoint in Zirakpur when she asked for a lift from the suspect to drop her at her PG in Mohali. The suspect has been identified as Kulwinder Singh, a resident of Batala.

In her complaint to the police, the victim said on Friday last, she was coming from her home in Barnala to Mohali, where she stays in a paying guest accommodation. She said on the way, she called up her friend Kulwinder Singh and requested him to pick her from the Chhat light point and drop her at her PG. She said Kulwinder was already wating for her in his Innova car when she reached the light point at 8 pm. She said after giving her a lift, the suspect took her to a secluded place instead of dropping her at her PG and raped her at gunpoint. Later, the suspect abandoned her on the road from where she hired a cab and reached her PG. The next morning, she lodged a police complaint. A case has been registered. TNS
