A girl of Raighar block was gangraped in village UV 52 under the Umarkote police limits on January 13.
Reports say that last year the victim against the consent of her family had married one Saju Harijan of village Chadheiguda under the Umerkote police station. For this reason, her family members had severed relationship with her.
The girl and her husband Saju stayed in a rented house in village Raighar. As their marriage was not recognised by both their families, the relationship between them began collapsing day by day. Five months after their marriage, the girl lodged a complaint of mental and physical harassment against her husband in the Raighar police station but withdrew the FIR after the dispute was compromised.
On January 13 evening, Saju asked the girl to go Umarkote with him but took her to an isolated pond situated in village UV52. At night, three persons came there by a bike and tied her hands and mouth with the help of her husband. Then, her husband and the three other persons, one by one, raped and left her deserted on the spot.
Next morning, the girl managed to come to the Umarkote police station and reported the matter. Police took her to the Umarkote medical for treatment. On Saturday (January 18) evening, the girl lodged a written complaint against her husband and the other three persons.
None of the accused has been arrested so far and investigation is on, said police
