In a disturbing incident, an alleged case of brutal gang-rape of a Delhi woman in Ghaziabad who was mutilated with an iron rod has turned out to be fake. The alleged crime had been highlighted by Delhi Commission for Women chief Swati Maliwal who shared a video pertaining to the incident on her social media account two days ago. However, according to police, the incident had been “cooked up” by the alleged rape victim to frame the accused men in a property feud.
On October 18, media outlets reported the brutal gang-rape of a 36-year-old woman in Ghaziabad. As per the reports, the woman had been found wrapped in a jute bag with her hands and legs tied. She had been gang-raped and tortured by five men who had abducted her before tying her up and leaving her there. The reports also mentioned that the woman was genitally mutilated with an iron rod which was reportedly left inside her body when she was tied up in the bag. The woman had claimed in a video that she had been waiting for a bus after her attending a function at her brother’s residence when she was kidnapped by five men at the bus stop and gang-raped.
While police at the time arrested four of the five men accused by the woman, these details remained unconfirmed. However, the police did mention a property dispute.
