GHAZIABAD: A 60-year-old woman has accused two robbers of gang-raping her during a robbery at her house on Tuesday night. The woman has been sent for a medical test while the police added Section 376 D (gang rape ) to the FIR registered in connection with the robbery a day earlier.Police officials, however, are not convinced by the sequence of events narrated by the woman. According to them, she and her husband, a daily wage labourer with a sugarcane crusher are frequently changing their statements.“It will be too early to reach a conclusion in the matter.

Moreover, initially the complainant had accused two persons of the village of committing the crime, but they were found to have no connection with the case. They named two more persons, who have been detained and are being interrogated.In the FIR, the complainant (woman’s husband) alleged that five armed men barged into his accommodation on Tuesday night and robbed him of Rs 1 lakh in cash, which was given to him by the contractors of the sugarcane crusher to hire more labourers for the unit, along with some jewellery. They also allegedly took his wife to another room and gang-raped her. At the time of the incident, his son, daughter-in-law and two grandchildren were also present.
