Jhansi : In a quick proactive action, cyber Cell and Kotwali police caught three youths who used to blackmail a woman by making obscene videos and raping her. All the three accused have been arrested.
As per the details given by the victim, she had a relationship with one of the accused Pushpendra Kushwaha (24) in the college where they were studying together.
She said that taking advantage of the relationship, Pushpendra had shot some intimate videos who had been blackmailing her for the past one year and repeatedly raping her. A few months later her friend Vishal Yadav (23) also joined the crime and both used to rape her by threatening to make the video viral.
On Tuesday, Pushpendra once again asked her to come the next day to a secluded house where another friend Harsh Dewan (23) was also to attend. She told the police that fed up with the shock of the rape, she approached the police and disclosed the whole incident.
Taking the matter seriously, Jhansi Range DIG Jogendra Kumar has ordered strict action against the youths. On Wednesday, the team of the Kotwali and the cyber cell laid a trap around the house when the woman in plain clothes entered the house as per the prescribed program. Within minutes, the police team raided the premises and caught the three accused.
The DIG said that a case has been registered against the three accused under sections 376D, 34 IPC and 67 IT Act. Since the crime was of serious nature, I was closely monitoring the operation, he said.
“I appreciate the courage of the girl who helped us bring the accused to justice. I appeal that in such cases the victims should directly approach the specially created women’s cyber cell where prompt action will be taken after keeping the identity of the women a secret”, the DIG said.
