New Delhi: A crowd of angry protesters on Tuesday attacked a police station in New Delhi after hearing that a woman had accused five police officials of raping her inside the building.
Over 100 people pelted stones at the Inderpuri police station in south-west Delhi after hearing the woman’s allegations that the station house officer (SHO) and four others had assaulted her.
The woman, who resides in a slum in Inderpuri, alleged that she went to the Inderpuri police station on Monday night to enquire about her husband, who was allegedly wanted for gambling.
She claimed that she was sexually assaulted by the SHO and four others who later threatened her with dire consequences if she revealed the incident to anyone.
After she was let off, the woman said in a police complaint, she informed her husband who took her to Ram Manohar Lohia hospital. The husband said the hospital authorities asked him to inform police.
Delhi Police spokesperson Rajan Bhagat said that they could comment about the incident only after getting the report of the medical examination conducted at the RML hospital.
"The Crime Against Women Cell is investigating the case. We can say anything about the incident only after receiving the medical report," he told PTI.
