Pregnant woman gang-raped in Gurugram
Gurugram, May 26: A six-month pregnant woman was allegedly gang-raped by an autorickshaw driver and his two accomplices in Manesar here, police said on Saturday.
The victim, 23, approached the police four days after she was victimised.
"A case under Section 376D (gang rape) and other sections of the Indian Penal Code was registered at Women Police Station, Manesar, against unknown autorickshaw driver and others," a senior police officer told IANS.
The police said the victim, who hails from Bihar, had been residing in Manesar area with her husband and two-and-half-year-old son.
The victim was employed at a vehicle showroom in Manesar.
On May 21, when the incident took place, the woman had visited the ESI Hospital in Sector 3 of Manesar for a routine checkup of her pregnancy with her husband on his bicycle.
"While returning, she complained to her husband that she was not comfortable on bicycle. Victim's husband asked her to take shared autorickshaw to reach their rented house in the nearby village. But she did not reach home for hours until very late," said the officer.
Later, the victim was found in a semi-conscious condition in Sector 6 of Manesar.
"The victim reached the Women Police Station on Friday evening with her husband after she developed some complications in her pregnancy. A case was registered after her medical examination. Doctors, however, said the foetus is stable," the officer added.
The victim told the police that the accused gave her a glass of water, after drinking which she fell unconscious.
"I can recall that they were three. But I don't know the place they took me to," she said in her complaint.

Virat Kohli fined 20 per cent match fees, one demerit point for his altercation with Sam Konstas
Melbourne, Dec 26: India superstar Virat Kohli was on Thursday fined 20 per cent of his match fee and handed one demerit point by the ICC following his on-field altercation with Australia debutant Sam Konstas on the opening day of the fourth Test here.
The incident happened in the 10th over when Kohli and the 19-year-old Konstas bumped their shoulders and also exchanged a few words in the first session’s play at the Melbourne Cricket Ground here.
"Article 2.12 of the ICC Code of Conduct relates to: "inappropriate physical contact with a Player, Player Support Personnel, Umpire, Match Referee or any other person (including a spectator during an International Match"," the ICC said on its website.
"No formal hearing was needed as Kohli accepted the sanctions propsed by Match Referee Andy Pycroft. On-field umpires Joel Wilson and Michael Gough, third umpire Sharfuddoula Ibne Shahid and fourth umpire Shawn Craig levelled the charge," it added.
While moving across the pitch after the completion of the over, both the players bumped their shoulders and exchanged a few words before Australia opener Usman Khawaja and on-field umpires Gough and Wilson intervened.
Konstas later played down the incident after the end of the play, saying "Virat Kohli accidentally bumped into me, that's cricket and can happen with tension."
"Have a look where Virat walks. Virat's walked one whole pitch over to his right and instigated that confrontation. No doubt in my mind whatsoever."
