Dalit Woman Raped After Accused Conceals His Religious Identity, Obscene Videos Made: Repeated Sexual Exploitation Through Blackmail, FIR Registered on Court Order
A case of sexual exploitation of a 22-year-old Dalit woman by concealing religious identity has come to light in the Garhmukteshwar police station area. It is alleged that the accused hotel owner gained the trust of the woman and her family by identifying himself as a Hindu, then drugged her, raped her, and made obscene photos and videos to blackmail her. Through this, the accused repeatedly sexually exploited the woman.
The victim stated that about eight months ago, two young men came to her house to buy a buffalo. The deal did not go through, but they kept coming back to her house. One of these men introduced himself as Ajay Kumar and a hotel owner. The accused said he needed an employee to work at the hotel counter and arranged a job for the woman’s mother at a salary of Rs. 15,000 per month.
It is alleged that after taking the woman to the hotel, the accused gave her a narcotic substance. While she was unconscious, he raped her and made obscene photos and videos. Fearing social stigma and disgrace, the woman did not share this with anyone and stopped going to the hotel.
After some time, the accused called and revealed that his real name was not Ajay, but Yunus. He threatened that if she did not comply with his demands, he would make the photos and videos go viral on social media. After this, the accused called the woman to different places and raped her several times. The victim alleged that when she resisted, the accused would use casteist slurs and verbally abuse her over the phone, mentally harassing her.
Police Station In-charge Inspector Devendra Singh Bisht said that on the orders of the court, a case has been registered against Yunus, a resident of Mohalla Madrasa in Garhmukteshwar city, under serious sections including rape, threats, blackmail, and the SC/ST Act. The police are conducting a thorough investigation into the matter.
