Vadodara gang rape

The body of a woman, who had gone missing earlier, was found dead in bushes in Vadodara. The woman has been identified as Vidya Vasava, a resident of Shinor village in the district.

According to police reports, four men - Pravin Vasava, Kiran Vasava, Gangaram Vasava, and Chunilal Mangaldas, all residents of Shinor and nearby villages - have been arrested in connection with the case.

The investigation revealed that Kiran, the deceased’s brother-in-law, suspected her of being involved in another relationship. Officials said he had been pressuring her to marry him, but she refused.

In retaliation, the accused along with his associates allegedly entered the Monter’s Boat Training Centre, where they assaulted and raped the victim. After she attempted to flee, they chased her down, dragged her back into the bushes, and sexually assaulted her again. At last, they strangled her using her scarf, resulting in her death.

The police have arrested all four suspects, and further legal proceedings are ongoing.
