Woman in MP’s Guna Was “raped & tortured” for a month by her neighbor; wounds covered in chilli powder and sealed with glue

In a startling incident from Guna, Madhya Pradesh, a neighbor is said to have raped and tortured a woman for a month. According to reports, the accused forced her to marry him and give him ownership of her parents’ assets.

The woman, 23, who lived with her mother, was allegedly restrained, subjected to sexual assault, belt-whipped, and water-pipe-beaten, according to the police.

In order to stop the accused from screaming, it is also alleged that she sealed her lips with glue and applied chili powder to her wounds.

The Times of India reports that the victim told the police that one month ago, the accused took her against her will to his home and locked her in a room without giving her any way to leave or communicate.

She was tormented once more on Tuesday night, but she found a way out of the house and made it five kilometers through the night to the Cantonment police station by morning.

Her condition horrified the police when they arrived at the station. She had obvious bruises all over her body, her eyes were swollen, and her lips were glue-sealed shut.

The victim is stable after being hospitalized, according to police officer Dileep Rajoriya, who provided an update on her condition to Hindustan Times. He added that the woman’s mother was not present at the time of the assault because she was in Shivpuri.

According to the police, on Wednesday night, the accused was apprehended while supplying alcohol illegally. In addition to being charged with excise law, he has been booked under sections 376 (rape), 294 (obscene language), and 323 (voluntarily causing hurt) of the Indian Penal Code. Further charges may be brought against him following an investigation.
