A shocking incident of rape has come to light in Uttar Pradesh’s Lucknow city. A video is doing rounds on the internet where a woman can be seen accusing a mahant of rape in a temple.
Sharing a video of this incident, journalist Ahmed Khabeer wrote on Twitter that the woman was allegedly raped by Mahant of Janki Temple Ashram and his disciples in Lucknow.
The woman accused that the mahant has raped many women at his place. She was unconscious during the rape as she was offered some suspicious food. When she cried after being conscious, they threatened her with dire consequences. When she reached at the Gomati Nagar police station, the accused were already present there. Later, they were searching for her.
This was not the first incident of rape and police inaction in Uttar Pradesh. Nearly a month ago, two minor Dalit sisters were allegedly gang-raped and hanged from a tree in Uttar Pradesh’s Lakhimpur Kheri district. Later, six accused were taken into custody in this matter.
The victim’s mother said that her daughters were kidnapped by three bike-borne men at around 3 pm. About three hours later, they were found hanging from a tree outside the village.
The accused had been identified as Junaid, Suhail, Karimuddin, Arif, Hafizur Rahman and Chhotu Gautam. They raped the girls. Later, they were hanged at some distance so that it did not look like a murder.
Hitting out at Yogi Adityanath government, Senior Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi wrote on Twitter that the incident of the murder of two sisters in Lakhimpur (UP) was heart-wrenching. The relatives said that those girls were abducted in daylight.
In a similar incident, a minor Dalit girl was allegedly gang-raped and set on fire in Uttar Pradesh’s Pilibhit district on September 7. She was sent to District Hospital, Pilibhit in critical condition.
