Chhatarpur, September 14: In a horrifying incident, a man allegedly drugged his wife with momos before gang-raping her along with two others in Madhya Pradesh’s Chhatarpur district. The victim was later found semi-conscious, bound, and abandoned on the Sagar–Kanpur National Highway. Passersby spotted her near a railway overbridge and informed the Civil Lines police, who rushed her to Sagar district hospital. She regained consciousness and identified her husband and the two men as the assailants.

According to the Times of India report, the woman told the police that her husband took her to a local market under the pretext of running errands and offered her momos, after which she lost consciousness. She alleged that the three men then assaulted her while she was incapacitated, held her captive for some time, and later left her tied on the roadside. She reportedly warned authorities that she would take her life if no action was taken against the accused. Madhya Pradesh Horror: Teen Rape Survivor Sent Back To Family of Accused by CWC, Sexually Assaulted Again in Panna; 10 Booked.
