Ludhiana, September 11

The Sadar police have registered a rape case against four persons, including a live-in partner of the complainant.

The accused have been identified as Rohit (live-in partner of the victim), Rohit’s brother-in-law, a resident of Delhi, and two unknown persons.

The complainant told the police that she had an affair with Rohit and after the consent of his family, she started living with him at his house. Although Rohit’s wife and children were also living in the same house.

Last week, Rohit’s brother-in-law came from Delhi and after consuming some drugs he forcibly developed sexual relationship with her in the same house. “When I apprised my live-in partner about the sexual assault by his brother-in-law, my live-in partner instead of asking his brother-in-law had badly abused and beaten me up,” alleged the victim.

The victim further alleged that about a month back, two friends of Rohit had also come to the house and developed physical relations with her against her wishes. Despite Rohit was aware about this, he didn’t bother to ask his friends.

Investigating officer ASI Ranjit Singh said a case of rape and attack was registered against the four accused and raids were on to nab them.
