Two men arrested for raping 32 year-old teacher and 14-year-old girl in Kasganj

Agra: Two men, aged 21 and 22, have been arrested in Kasganj for the alleged repeated rape of a 32-year-old govt teacher and a 14-year-old girl, police said on Friday. The teacher, originally from Agra, had been living in a rented house in Kasganj for four years. According to her police complaint, a man who owns a nearby bike repair shop broke into her home three months ago, raped her, and filmed the assault. The survivor stated that the accused used the video to blackmail and repeatedly exploit her. Subsequently, the primary suspect's friend also allegedly entered her home, showed her the video, and assaulted her while threatening her if she told anyone. The complaint further states that the primary suspect later raped the teacher's landlord's 14-year-old daughter when she was home alone. He allegedly filmed this assault as well and threatened to kill the girl's brother if she spoke about it. ASP Kasganj, Rajesh Kumar Bharti, said, "Based on the complaint, an FIR was filed under sections 64(1) (rape), 65 (1) (rape with minor), 333 (house trespass), Pocso, and sections of the IT Act on July 30, and a probe was launched. Based on an intelligence input, the police team arrested the accused on Thursday evening.” “The accused were presented in court and are currently in custody,” ASP Bharti said.
