According to institutional sources and the details listed in the official complaint, the victim had been residing at her paternal home following her marriage. She occupied a room inside the residence along with her husband and their three-year-old child, whilst her mother occupied a separate adjacent room on the same premises.
The sequence of events commenced during the late hours of Tuesday night. At approximately 12:45 am, a group consisting of seven to eight masked individuals forcefully entered the house by breaking the latch of the main door. Upon gaining entry into the bedroom, the intruders held the family at gunpoint. They proceeded to bind the husband with ropes and subjected him to physical assault, rendering him unable to intervene.
The perpetrators then abducted the housewife at gunpoint, forcing her out of the residential premises. She was taken to an isolated location situated a short distance away from the family home, where she was subjected to a gang-rape by the perpetrators. Following the departure of the attackers, her relatives located her and brought her back to the family residence.
