A 15-year-old girl narrated her horrible ordeal with the police after she was allegedly abducted, raped and also sold into marriage.
Deputy Commissioner of Police, South-East district, Romil Baniya said, two accused involved identified as Mohammed Afroz and Pappu Yadav have been arrested in the case and efforts are on to arrest the others. Police have also contacted the victim’s parents who are in Chhattisgarh now.
Narrating the incident, Baniya said, “ The victim was enticed by one Armann on the pretext of some sweets at the New Delhi Railway station and was then taken to Sarai Kale Khan where he raped her with the help of his wife Hasheena.
later on she was sold into marriage to one Pappu Yadav for Rs 70,000.
“The victim was living at Faridabad for approximately two months with accused Pappu Yadav. She was physically and mentally tortured by Pappu. One day the victim managed to escape from Pappu’s house and managed to reach Hasrat Nizamuddin railway station. However, she was spotted by accused Hasheena, Armann’s wife, who had sold her. She offered to help the victim and also gave her a glass of juice,” said the DCP.
After finishing the drink the victim fell unconscious and Hasheena handed over to another accused identified as Mohammed Afroz (22) for some amount of money. Afroz then took her to an isolated place near the railway station and raped her and handed over the cash to Hasheena.
The victim was kept in a godown near Nizamuddin station where she was gangraped multiple times. The victim somehow managed to escape from the clutches of Hasheena and was spotted by a passerby in pitiable condition.
