A 45-year-old maid servant was allegedly gangraped here repeatedly over a period of three months by four persons, police said today.
According to the complaint filed by the victim yesterday, the accused-- Ulhas More, Ganesh More, Nikunj Rawal and Deepak Shah--first raped her in September this year after she saw one of them in a compromising position with his wife at their residence in Ulhasnagar and went talking about it to others.
The talk irked all the six members (four accused and wives of two of them) in the house who were all living together following which the four sexually assaulted the domestic help taking turns, police said quoting the complaint.
The victim was also threatened with dire consequences if she revealed anything. However, when the torture continued for three months, she filed a complaint with police yesterday.
