Haryana: Mentally-challenged woman raped and killed
Chandigarh, Feb 8 (IBNS): In a shocking incident, a 28-year-old mentally challenged woman was gangraped by a number of unidentified men in Haryana and then murdered.
The woman's body was then dumped along the Rohtak-Hisar highway.
The woman, who originally hails from Nepal, used to live with her sister in Bahu Akbarpur in Rohtak.
She had been reported missing on Feb 4.
According to The Times of India report, the woman's body was difficult to recognise since wild animals had attacked her face.
"The woman's body was found without key organs on Wednesday along with sticks, stones and condoms stuffed into her private parts three days after she went missing," the report stated.
Her body was decomposing when autopsy was conducted on it at Pandit Bhagwat Dayal Sharma Post Graduate Institute of Medical Sciences (PGIMS) in Rohtak on Thursday, the police said.
Following the incident, civil society members and notable faces from Rohtak joined hands with the family to take part in a candle light vigil to demand justice.
Police said they are investigating the case and and assured that the guilty will be arrested soon.
