In a new twist to the case of the dead woman who was found hanging in a farm of Kakora of lahar (Bhind) area some 21 days back, the father of the deceased now claimed that his daughter was kidnapped forcibly by five persons and raped her before she was strangled to death.

Kishan Pal Kushawah, the father of the deceased woman, a resident of ward number 11 of lahar, Bhind district, alleged that the accused also looted her jewelleries and ornaments and the doctors who conducted post-mortem of her took money from the two accused, who were earlier arrested by police, and tried to save them.

In a memorandum submitted to the State Governor through the SDM, lahar lK Pandey, Kushawah demanded strict action against the police officers and doctors who tried to save accused.

Kushawah said his daughter, Raja Beti, was kidnapped by five persons while she was going to college from home. The accused raped and murdered her and later hanged her in a tree in the farm of Kakora. He further alleged the doctors who conducted the postmortem received a large sum from the accused and even the concerned police officers also did not mention the crime committed by the accused in FIR and try to save them.

Kushawah, in his memo, demanded action against concerned police officers and doctors. The accused included Rinku and Ajay Dohare, Kunvar Singh Dhore, Umesh Rathore, Neha daughter of Karan Singh Dohare. The police arrested Rinku and Ajay and closed the chapter. Nearly a dozen people of the community with Kishun lal have demanded impartial enquiry into the case and said those accused were roaming freely.
