A woman was raped by a gang of dacoits at Gotidhara under the Brahmani Tarang police station in the steel city on February 23 night.
As per a complaint lodged by the victim with police, seven miscreants barged into a house at late night with the intention of committing dacoity. The woman’s husband, the caretaker of the house, was sleeping on the first floor while she was sleeping on the ground floor.
The dacoits threatened the woman’s husband and later raped her. They also looted articles worth lakhs from the house before fleeing the spot.
Acting on the basis of the complaint, police have registered a case and started investigation into the incident. Till last reports came in, police were still clueless about the miscreants.
