The forensic examination in the Mohanlalganj rape and murder case in Uttar Pradesh has revealed that the victim was sexually assaulted before being killed. This is contrary to the Lucknow police claim that the victim was not raped and she lost life due to excessive loss of blood.
Meanwhile, family members of the 36-year-old victim who are on a dharna in the State capital went on a hunger strike reiterating their demand for a CBI probe. Echoing the demand, Opposition parties allege that the police and the government were trying to save some “influential” people involved in the case.
Though the police are yet to disclose the forensic report, sources said it mentioned that on July 16 the widow was raped and then brutally killed by more than one person. DNA samples found on the victim indicate the presence of more than one attacker.
