The tantrik had assured the family that he would resolve the discord if the woman stays with her for a few months. When she refused to oblige, her mother-in-law allegedly sedated her and she later regained consciousness in the tantrik’s room and found her son also in it. The tantrik repeatedly raped the woman for 79 days in the room in front of her son. The accused also arranged food for the mother and child all this while.

How did she escape?

As fate would have it, on April 28, she found that the tantrik had left his mobile phone in the room. She used it to call up her parents and narrate her ordeal. They, in turn, informed the police. But by the time the police reached the place, the tantrik had managed to escape.

No arrest so far

A case under several sections of the Indian Penal Code, including Section 376 (rape), has been registered against the accused. The woman has named her husband, his brother and other in-laws in the FIR. However, no arrests have been made so far. She has been admitted to a hospital, and her condition is stated to be stable.
