A 20-year-old Bangladeshi woman, who was found unconscious in a Amritsar-bound train here two days ago, today regained her senses and alleged that she was gang- raped near Kalyan railway station near Mumbai, a Government Railway Police (GRP) official said.

He said that the victim has alleged that she was sold to one 'Jiju' in a Kalyan suburb by one 'Mithun Chakraborthy', a Bangladeshi, some five years ago. Jiju allegedly sold her to one Sonia of Kalyan who allegedly forced her into the flesh trade, the inspector said.
The victim told the GRP that she hailed from Nopra village under the Jessore police station area in Bangladesh and was married to one Billa Hussain.
He said that she was unable to state the district from where she hails from in Bangladesh.

Joshi said that the the woman was allegedly gang-raped by four men whom she could recognises.
The case under Sections 336 G (gangrape), Section 323 (voluntarily causing hurt) and Section 34 (acts done by several persons in furtherance of common intention) of the Indian Penal Code have been booked against the alleged rapists along with Jiju, Mithun and Sonia, he said.
