Woman raped hours before wedding in India

International Desk: The gruesome incident took place just a day ahead of her wedding which was scheduled to take place May 29.

As there was no toilet in her home, the bride-to-be stepped outside in the wee hours when one Satyanarayana along with his friends forcibly took her to nearby sugarcane fields and raped her.

The rapists fled the scene after she became unconscious.

Unable to locate the bride, her family members searched for her in the village to no avail. Later, some villagers passing through the fields, spotted her lying unconscious and informed her parents. The parents rushed to the spot and brought the victim home. When the bridegroom's family came to know about the incident, they immediately cancelled the marriage.

The victim is being treated at Rajahmundry government hospital.

The police registered a case and launched a manhunt for the rapists. Several local woman organisations condemned the incident and demanded stringent action.
