Union Minister visits Kailwada gangrape victim

Union Minister Sanjeev Balyan today visited the 32-year-old Kailwada gangrape victim and assured her justice, while ordering the state police to apprehend the remaining culprits within three days.
In a strongly-worded message to the police, the minister said that those arrested should be booked under the stringent National Security Act.
In a shocking incident, a 32-year-old married woman was raped by two men two years ago. They had also filmed the entire incident and circulated the clip on the social media. The accused had been blackmailing the victim since then.
The accused, Irshad and Nazer, were arrested at Kailwada village near here on January 17.

The search is on for four others who had allegedly aided in the crime and were named in victim's statement.
This is the second such case in Muzaffarnagar district. A 40-year-old married health worker had allegedly committed suicide on January 13 after the video of her gangrape was uploaded on social media.
Meanwhile, Hindu activists and former block president Virender Singh have threatened to hold a 'mahapanchayat' if no "positivesteps" were taken in the case.
