After detaining and questioning over 20 people in the case of photojournalist who was gangraped by five men in Mumbai last night, the police have released the sketches of five accused who allegedly raped the girl in Parel area.
These sketches were prepared after the police recorded statement of the victim and her colleague.
According to a CNN-IBN report, “The survivor was threatened by five men with a beer bottle if she cried out for help. The male colleague accompanying the woman was tied up and beaten by the accused.”
The residents of Mumbai have expressed shock and concern and feel the city is fast losing its tag as a safe place for women.
The woman has also managed to provide the names of two of the accused – Rupesh and Sajid.
Mumbai Police Commissioner Satypal Singh told reporters that the accused tricked the survivor asking if she had permission to shoot in the area.
“In the evening the woman and her colleague were clicking pictures. Two men approached her asking if she had permission to shoot. Another man then joined in and the photographer was gangraped. We have brought in 10 people for questioning. A case of gangrape has been registered,” said Satypal Singh.
The victim is being treated at Jaslok Hospital where her condition is said to be stable.
