Muzzaffarnagar:
A woman, who had alleged that she became pregnant after being repeatedly raped by her father-in-law in neighbouring Prabudhnagar district, was produced before a local court, police said.
Her statement was recorded during the proceedings, following which the police sought permission to examine the same from the court in order to initiate proceedings against the accused, they said.
In her complaint before the city Superintendent of Police (SP) on May 5, she had alleged that she was five months pregnant after she had repeatedly raped.
She also accused her husband and mother-in-law of ignoring her cries of help, police said.
The matter draws parallel with the controversial Imrana case of the district that grabbed the headlines six years back, when a community
panchayat passed an edict that Imrana, a mother of five, would have to consider her husband as her son after the alleged rape by her father-in-law and that her marriage will be null and void.
