Teacher gang-raped near Bareilly highway, incident filmed

Days after the heinous gang-rape of a woman and her minor daughter on NH-91 near Uttar Pradesh's Bulandshahr, another woman, a teacher, was violated on Tuesday at a road near the Bareilly-Delhi highway, police said.

The assailants also filmed the gang-rape and threatened to post it on social media sites if she complained.

The woman has, however, reported the matter to the police and named two persons in her FIR. She told the police that as she was on Khandua road on way to school, a car stopped near her and she was forcibly pulled inside by two people. They raped her in the moving car and dumped her later in a field adjacent to the highway.

Inspector Rakesh Kumar, of CB Ganj police station, said the family of the victim was informed and a report has been lodged in the matter. "We are investigating the matter and hope to arrest the culprits soon," he added.
