In her complaint, the 26-year-old woman has alleged that she was raped and threatened by her father-in-law, identified as Sajid, in July 2013.
The incident came to light when the woman, who is seven months pregnant, sought permission on Thursday from District Magistrate Kaushal Raj Sharma for abortion at Chapar village here.
A case has been registered against Sajid and mother-in-law Naeema under section 376 (rape), 506 (criminal intimidation), and 120b (criminal conspiracy) of the Indian Penal Code, SP city Sarvankumar said, adding, the woman's statement in this connection will be recorded in the court tomorrow.
The woman has been sent for medical examination, Sarvankumar said.
Meanwhile, Sajid and Naeema have denied the allegations and said that the woman has falsely implicated them because of a property dispute.
