The 36-year-old who alleged rape was misusing law to get back at men with whom she had a property dispute, says UP regional police chief
An alleged gangrape in Ghaziabad has turned out to be a case of the woman lying to frame the men as they have a running dispute over property, police today claimed. She is likely to face action.
“She was with two of her friends for the two days — the duration for which she'd alleged she'd been kidnapped and raped by five men,” said Praveen Kumar, UP's regional police chief.
The case gained prominence and the woman, a resident of Delhi, was hospitalised on Wednesday after Delhi Commission for chief Swati Maliwal tweeted that the 36-year-old was found wrapped in a jute bag, with her hands and legs tied, and an iron rod inserted in her private parts.
Police had arrested four of the five men named, filed a case, but mentioned the property dispute angle then too.
