BIJNOR: A 25-year-old woman employed at a private finance company in Moradabad has accused three male colleagues of gang-raping her and defrauding her of Rs 1.1 crore. An FIR has been registered at Majhola police station based on her complaint.
According to the woman, one of the accused convinced her to invest her savings in the company with the promise of high returns. Trusting him, she invested her own money and also collected funds from relatives and acquaintances at his suggestion.
When she began demanding repayment, the man allegedly avoided her and gave repeated excuses. Eventually, under the pretext of returning the money, he invited her to his home. There, he allegedly offered her a drink spiked with sedatives. After she lost consciousness, she claims she was gang-raped by the three men.
