A 20-year-old gang-rape victim allegedly died by suicide due to blackmail in a village in Nuh district. An FIR was registered against four accused and police are investigating the matter.
According to the police, the accused are residents of the same village as the young woman. The family alleged that the accused gang-raped her and filmed the incident. After this, she was continuously blackmailed with threats of making the video viral. Distressed by this, she took the extreme step.
The deceased’s family filed a complaint with the police and accused the four men. Following the complaint, the police registered an FIR at Bichor police station and launched an investigation.
The incident has sparked widespread anger in the village. The family has demanded strict action against the accused. Police officials said they were investigating every aspect of the case and would arrest the accused soon.
“After the post-mortem conducted by a board of doctors, we handed over the body of the victim to kin today. Four special police teams including a cyber-crime team are investigating. Police are also investigating when the video was made, who accessed it, and how long the blackmailing scheme has been ongoing,” said Inspector Rajbir Singh, SHO of Bichor police station.
