Tricked, gang-raped, threatened: Minor recalls horror on Greater Noida-Delhi bus
The survivor alleged in her complaint that the two accused sexually assaulted her and threatened to kill her when she tried to resist.
A 16-year-old girl from Uttar Pradesh recounted her harrowing experience of gang rape on a Greater Noida-Delhi bus earlier this month, according to police. The incident occurred near Pari Chowk on August 4, when the survivor boarded the bus, which traveled approximately 47km from Pari Chowk to Ring Road near Kashmere Gate Inter-State Bus Terminal in Delhi.
The survivor alleged that the two accused sexually assaulted her and threatened to kill her when she attempted to resist. The girl had left her home without informing her parents after her mother scolded her for her studies, heading towards her cousin's house in Sector 63, Noida. She inadvertently disembarked at Pari Chowk after dark and rain began to fall.
The conductor allegedly told her the bus was going towards Sector 63, and she boarded the vehicle. The bus was empty and on its way back after repairs at a workshop in Surajpur. Once the bus began moving, the conductor allegedly began behaving inappropriately, leading to the sexual assault of the survivor. The men allegedly threatened her if she resisted.
The girl reported the incident to the police after the accused left her near Ring Road and she managed to escape. CCTV footage helped locate the bus at a parking area in Timarpur, where the two accused, both in their early 20s and from Kanpur, were subsequently arrested.
