A pregnant woman was abducted and allegedly gang-raped outside the railway station in Andhra Pradesh’s Bapatla district while waiting to board an evening train with her husband and three children. The woman’s husband, who had been severely beaten, attempted to raise an alert and enlist the assistance of the railway police, but was unsuccessful.
The victim is being treated in the hospital, and all three suspects have been apprehended, including a minor.
The family of five was sleeping on benches in the station on Saturday night when the three men woke them up. The drunken guys then attacked the husband, and when his wife interfered, they pulled her away from the station in Repalle, around 80 kilometers from the state capital Amravati.
In search of employment, the family was moving from Guntur to Krishna district during the night of Saturday and Sunday. This family comes from Prakasam district.
The spouse managed to flee and sought assistance from the railway police, but no official could be seen at the station.
The woman was later discovered in the surrounding bushes. She was sent to the hospital for a medical checkup and treatment.
