A woman in Sohna, Haryana, was allegedly tricked into believing she could double her money and was then repeatedly raped. The accused also swindled her out of Rs 2 lakh, claiming the money would be invested in the stock market.
The woman, who lives with her family in a rented house in Sohna, told the police that one of her neighbors often visited her home and promised high returns on money invested in the stock market.
The accused reportedly started a physical relationship with her over a period of eight months and, with the help of his friends, monitored her husband’s movements.
The woman stated that when she asked for her money back, the accused invited her to his brother’s flat, where both of them raped her. When she resisted, he threatened her with serious consequences.
The accused also refused to return her money and threatened to share an obscene video of her if she asked for it again. The woman revealed that the accused had filmed the rape and blackmailed her.
