Assam horror: Woman raped allegedly, fingers chopped off in Cachar.
Two men were arrested on Sunday in Assam's Cachar district 10 days after they were booked for allegedly attempting to kill a woman after raping her.
A horrific and brutal case of sexual assault has emerged once again in Cachar, Assam.
The crime took place in Punihawai, Dholai and despite the fact that the complaint has been filed two weeks ago, police have yet to apprehend the culprits.
In her statement, the woman alleged the two barged into her house on October 25 and threatened to kill her son if she resisted. 'They raped me... I... tried to escape when they attacked me with a sharp object. They tried to chop my head off but I escaped. I lost four fingers of my left hand. They ran away when I started screaming,' she said.
Sahabuddin, the officer in-charge of the police station, said they have arrested the two. He cited their initial probe and added the complainant's husband remarried recently. 'One of the two accused is the father of her husband's second wife... the accused are saying that they are being framed, we are investigating the matter thoroughly because someone tried to kill the complainant with a sharp object.'
However, when contacted, Dholai PS in-charge Sahabuddin Barbhuiya refuted the claims made by the victim and said the two accused persons have been arrested and undergoing interrogating.
