New Delhi, Nov 20: A 32-year-old woman was raped in a moving train near Shahdara by three men who allegedly entered the ladies coach with the intention to rob the passengers, said the police.

rapedtrainThe incident took place on Thursday in Jan Nayak Express when it was on its way to Old Delhi railway station after being diverted from its usual route.

The victim was alone in the coach when the three accused entered the train. They robbed her of her belongings and one of them allegedly forced himself on her during which the woman bit his private parts.

It was his scream that alarmed two Railway Protection Force constables -- Sanjay Kumar and guard Binod Kumar – patrolling along the tracks at the Old Delhi railway station, and they rushed inside. While the other two managed to flee with the woman’s bag, the injured accused, Shahbaz (21), was held.

A senior police officer told The Hindu that the accused got into the train when it slowed down on the Old Yamuna Bridge near Shahdara on Thursday night.

“All other passengers, barring the victim, had already deboarded the train. She too had planned to get down at the Old Delhi railway station. But before that could happen, she found herself surrounded by three strangers. Two of them snatched her handbag while a third, identified as Shahbaz, tried to strangle her first and then forced himself on her. The other two held her hand to stop her from resisting,” said the officer.

Shahbaz and others have been booked under various sections. A hunt has been launched for the other two accused. The victim is a housewife from Bihar’s Darbhanga district.

Mumbai, Feb 11: A 65-year-old woman was allegedly killed by her husband over debt and illness in suburban Powai here, police said on Tuesday.

The incident came to light when Sheela Ajit Lad was found dead by her neighbours at Sukh Shanti Co-operative Society at around 9.30 pm on Monday, an official said.

The victim was allegedly killed by her husband Ajit Lad, who hit her on the head with a heavy object, slit her wrists and strangled her to death, he said.

The accused absconded at around 7.30 pm, leaving a note at the crime scene, saying he was going to commit suicide and had killed his wife because he was heavily in debt and she was suffering from an ailment, the official said.

The childless couple lived alone in the apartment, he added.

"On the basis of the note, we have registered a case of murder against Ajit Lad and have launched a manhunt for him. We have not traced him or found his body as he had mentioned suicide in the note," deputy commissioner of police (DCP) Zone X Ankit Goyal said.

Mathura, Jul 22: A local court in Uttar Pradesh's Mathura on Wednesday sentenced 11 policemen, including the then Deputy Superintendent of Police, to life imprisonment in a case pertaining to the murder of royal Raja Man Singh in 1985.

District Judge Sadhana Rani Thakur announced the life imprisonment sentence a day after holding them guilty of the killing. Three policemen were, however, acquitted. Four men died during the trial.

The policemen were convicted under Section 302 (murder), 148 (rioting) and 149 (Every member of unlawful assembly guilty of offence committed in prosecution of common object) of the Indian Penal Code.

The verdict comes 35 years after Man Singh was killed. He, along with two others, was shot dead in police firing a day after he crashed his jeep into the then Rajasthan Chief Minister Shiv Charan Mathur's helicopter in a fit of anger.
