Disturbing Cases of Sexual Assault Emerge in Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh
Two separate incidents highlight the ongoing issue of sexual violence in India, with arrests made and investigations underway.
- In Uttar Pradesh, a 16-year-old girl reported repeated rape by her father following her mother's death, leading to his arrest.
- The victim in Uttar Pradesh faced physical abuse when resisting her father's advances, despite warnings from family and community leaders.
- In Madhya Pradesh's Rewa district, a newlywed woman was gang-raped by five men while her husband was tied to a tree at a picnic spot.
- The Rewa incident involved eight intoxicated men, with the police detaining seven suspects and continuing to search for the eighth.
- Political accusations in Madhya Pradesh suggest police delayed reporting the Rewa case due to a regional industry conclave.
