The victim was a college student from Gurugram
In another case that highlights the lack of women’s safety in Haryana, a Gurugram college student was pulled into a car earlier this week and raped by two of her captors.
According to a report in The Times of India, the abduction happened at around 2 pm at Farrukhnagar. The two men drove into a nearby forested stretch, parked their car by the roadside and raped the woman. They then threw her out of the car and returned her clothes only after she agreed not to tell anyone.
A police complaint was filed only on Thursday when the woman told her father about it.
The case is the sixth rape case reported in Haryana since January 13, when a woman was found gang-raped and murdered near a canal.
Earlier, amid mounting attack from the opposition over deteriorating law and order, Haryana Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar said, "Such incidents are unfortunate. We'll take strict action and tie up all loose ends. We have made changes in the police administration and transferred a few officers." "I appeal political parties to not politicise the issue," he added.
In the wake of the recent rapes and murders in Haryana, DGP B S Sandhu on Tuesday held a meeting with senior police officers and directed field units to give utmost priority to cases of crime against women and children. The meeting was attended by field officers of the rank of Commissioners of Police, IGPs of various police ranges, Superintendents of Police of various districts, among other officers via videoconferencing, an official release said here.
Expressing serious concerns over the recent cases of crimes against women, Sandhu directed all field units to put the best resources available with them to detection and prevention of such offences, it said. "No missing report should be taken casually and prompt action should be initiated. There should be close monitoring at the level of the SP and the Range IGP," Sandhu said.Notably, two minor Dalit girls were allegedly raped and killed in separate incidents last week, barely a month after a similar case involving a six-year-old girl shook the state.
Sending a clear message to all field officers, the DGP said safety and security of every citizen is paramount, especially of women and children, and under no circumstances any lapse or negligence on the part of any staff or official of any rank while dealing with such cases would be tolerated, the statement read. He further urged the Range IGPs, Commissioners of Police and SPs to strengthen and personally monitor the functioning of women helpline and involve the youth and representatives of society in fighting crimes against women, it said. He also directed all SPs/CPs to ensure security and patrolling near all women colleges and schools.
