Guwahati:
Police in Assam's Lakhimpur district have detained a CRPF trooper
for allegedly raping a physically challenged woman, police said on
Friday.
While the Central Reserve Police Force trooper Mohan Singh has
been detained for the crime late Thursday, police is also on the
lookout for three of his accomplices who managed to escape, an
official said.
The incident took place at Chauldhowa village, about 40 km from
Lakhimpur town.
"According to locals, about four CRPF personnel forcibly took the
physically challenged woman, who was passing by the CRPF camp on
NH 52 in the area to the nearby jungle," an official said.
Some locals raised an alarm. While they managed to catch Mohan
Singh, the others fled.
"We have sent the victim for medical examinations," an official
said, adding that there was no arrest as no one had filed a first
information report (FIR) on behalf of the victim.
On Thursday, police had also arrested a senior Congress leader in
Chirang district of Assam's Bodoland Territorial Areas Districts (BTAD)
for allegedly attempting to rape a woman.
