A 50-year-old woman was allegedly gang-raped and killed in Budaun district in Uttar Pradesh on Sunday night, according to The Times of India. The incident allegedly happened in a place of worship. An FIR was registered on Tuesday evening after an autopsy confirmed that the woman sustained several injuries, mostly on her private parts. The post-mortem examination showed that her parts were “severely brutalised”.
The police have booked a priest and two disciples under IPC sections 376-d (gang-rape) and 302 (murder) at the Ughaiti police station in Budaun. Senior superintendent of police (SSP) Budaun, Sankalp Sharma, said, “The post-martem has confirmed injuries on private part and the reason of death is shock and haemorrhage due to ante-mortem injuries. The priest and his aides are missing. We have registered an FIR against them. We have deployed multiple teams to nab the accused.”
