gangrape

A bulldozer with the police force arrives at the bakery of SP leader Moeed Khan, the main accused in the gang rape of a minor girl, in Ayodhya. "The bakery has been sealed after it was found illegal and action to demolish the bakery is being initiated", says SDM Sohawal, Ashok Kumar.

It is indeed a notable development that the Uttar Pradesh Police have registered a new case on August 2, 2024, concerning the alleged rape of a 12-year-old girl in Ayodhya. The case, filed in the Kotwali Nagar area, names SP leaders Mohammad Rashid, Chairman of Nagar Panchayat Bhadarsa, and Jai Singh Rana, along with another individual, for allegedly pressuring the victim's family to settle the matter.

According to the FIR, at 11:00 PM, Jai Singh Rana and an unidentified person visited the District Women's Hospital, where the victim was hospitalized, and threatened to kill her family if they did not agree to a settlement. Mohammad Rashid had previously coerced the victim's family into attempting a settlement. The FIR was lodged by Ramsevak Das, a resident of Pipri Bharatkund in Purakalandar police station.

This development follows a recent meeting between Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath and the victim's family. The girl was reportedly raped multiple times over two months by SP leader and bakery owner Moid Khan and his employee Raju Khan. The abuse was documented, and the case was exposed after the victim became pregnant.

Chief Minister Adityanath assured the family that stringent measures would be taken against the perpetrators. He also shared details of his meeting on X (formerly Twitter), stating, "I met the family members of the victim from Ayodhya, along with Dr. Amit Singh Chauhan, the MLA from Bikapur constituency in Ayodhya district."

"The perpetrators will face severe consequences, and we are committed to ensuring justice for the girl at all costs," the Chief Minister emphasized.
