Chandigarh: At least four more alleged rape cases, including one of a minor girl and another gangrape of a newly married woman, have been reported in Haryana in the past 48 hours, police said on Wednesday.
A newly-married woman was allegedly abducted and gangraped last month by four men at Banwasa village under Gohana sub-division in Haryana's Sonipat district, 200 km from Chandigarh.
Haryana had seen three gangrape cases in September and the latest ones have added to that list.
"All the four accused (in the married woman's rape) have been arrested. While Maafi was produced before a court late evening, other accused are being interrogated and will be produced tomorrow," Deputy Superintendent of Police (DSP) Gohana Yash Pal Khatana said on Wednesday.
The victim, who got married three months ago, had gone to her parents' house in Banwasa village September 28 when Maafi allegedly told her that her husband was waiting for her at the Gohana railway crossing.
When she went there, she was abducted in a car. She told police that four men raped her repeatedly. She was released by the accused on Wednesday, after which she complained to police.
