BHOPAL: Barely two days after a gang rape in Indore, three persons allegedly gang-raped a mother of two in Berasia, some 35 km from Bhopal late on Friday. This was the fourth incident of gang-rape in a week's time.
The incident took place when the 30-year-old woman, the wife of Than Singh, a farmer and a resident of Khajdamishr village, had gone out to dispose of waste water.
The three persons allegedly roughed her up and took turns to rape her, the police said.
The police said the alleged victim was alone at the time of incident and her husband had gone out to his relative's place. The victim told her husband about the crime and the two went to a police station and registered a case against the three accused. The three were arrested soon after the case was registered in the night, the police added.
The police said the three accused, identified as Radheshyam, Laxmi and Gulab Singh, are farmers and residents of the same village.
The police said the condition of woman suggested that she was brutally assaulted. The woman was taken for medical examination on Saturday.
The police said victim's husband and the three accused had an old enmity. All of them had also registered cases and counter-cases against each other in the past.
The complainant is in a state of shock, the police said, adding that she has been shifted to Bhopal for better medical assistance, the police said.
