Noida July 31, 2016 : A woman from Noida and her 14-year-old daughter were allegedly dragged out of their car and then gang-raped by a group of five men near a highway in Uttar Pradesh’s Bulandshahr, just 65 kilometres from Delhi, on Friday.

 

They were travelling from to Shahjahanpur in UP with their family on Friday night. Soon after they entered Bulandshahr, their car was hit with a blunt object. As it stopped, the group of five men allegedly dragged the family to a nearby field and looted their cash, jewellery and mobile phones.

They then allegedly tied the men of the family with ropes and raped the woman and her daughter, a senior police officer from Bulandshahr said.

One of the family members, who managed to untie the ropes, reported the matter to the police the next morning.

The highway connects Delhi to Kanpur. There was a police post just 100 metres away from the spot where the car was stopped.

No arrests have been made in the case yet. A top police official in the area has been suspended.

A special team has been formed to nab the accused.
