Muzaffarpur, Bihar, Jan 05:  A 30-year-old woman from West Bengal was allegedly gang-raped by five men, including the driver of a senior administrative official, in Bihar’s Muzaffarpur district on Sunday night.

The woman had come to Bihar to visit her relatives. When she got off the train at a nearby railway station, she was approached by five men there, including the driver of an Additional District Magistrate of the district, says police. The five men asked the woman to come along with them, promising to drop her to her destination.

 

However, they took her to a control room of the district collectorate premises and gang-raped her, says the police. The district collectorate has important offices such as that of the District Magistrate and other top officials.

The woman later managed to get to a nearby police station and lodge a complaint.

A case has been registered against the five accused. One person has been arrested and the police are carrying out raids to nab the others.

The woman was yesterday taken to the Sri Krishna Medical College and Hospital (SKMCH) in Muzaffarpur for a medical examination.
