Noida, April 9: The safety of women in Noida has once again come under the scanner after a 28-year-old woman was allegedly drugged and gang-raped in a moving car on Saturday and then dumped near Kalindi Kunj. Police said one accused has been arrested while the other is absconding with the car in which the victim was raped.


Noida police said, the victim, a native of Darjeeling, was gang-raped by two men while she was returning from her work around 8.30pm on Saturday. "The woman, a widow, lives in sector 93 in Noida and works as a domestic help in the Shramik Kunj apartments in the same area. On Saturday evening, while she was returning from work, the accused identified as Kunwar Pal and Sunder offered her a lift in their Santro car. After a short while, they gave her a drink laced with sedatives. She was then raped in the moving car for seven hours on various stretches of the city, including the expressway," said SSP Praveen Kumar, adding that the accused are probably known to the victim.


"The two men dropped the woman at an isolated place near Kalindi Kunj. When the Okhla Police noticed the woman, they called the Noida police," said a cop.


The Phase-II police have registered a case under section 376 (rape) of IPC against Kunwar Pal and Sunder. While Pal, a cement supplier, was arrested, Sunder is absconding with the Santro car. His location was traced to be in Delhi late Sunday evening.


The district police, however, claimed that the victim's statements have been contradicted by residents of Gheja villager, where the accused reside. Senior cops said villagers alleged that the two accused were being framed by a rival group with which they have an old dispute. "The victim's medical examination has confirmed rape, but a group of people from Gheja village came to us on behalf of the accused saying they were being falsely implicated by members of a rival group," the SSP said.


"We are investigating on both lines, on the implication angle as well as the circumstances described by the woman in her complaint," Kumar said, adding that the other accused would be arrested by night.

Lucknow, Jun 7: From Anamika Shukla to Anamika Singh and finally Priya. The primary school teacher who was found to be teaching simultaneously in 25 schools, not only has multiple jobs but also multiple identities.

Anamika was arrested on Saturday from Kasganj district when she went to submit her resignation after she was served a show cause notice by the Basic Shiksha Adhikari (BSA), Anjali Agarwal.

Agarwal informed the police and Anamika was arrested.

According to the Kasganj BSA, Anamika Shukla, originally a resident of Kaimganj in Farukhabad is currently doing her B.Ed from the Raghukul Degree College in Gonda. Her other documents are also from the same college.

During interrogation, Anamika Shukla said that she was actually Anamika Singh but as questioning proceeded, it turned out that she was Priya from Farrukhabad.

She has been booked for cheating and forgery under IPC sections 420 (cheating and dishonestly inducing delivery of property), 467 (forgery of valuable security, will etc.) and 468 (forgery for purpose of cheating).

According to the police, the woman claimed that she had paid Rs five lakh to a Mainpuri-based man to get this job.

She used Anamika Shukla's credentials to get the job while her real name is Priya, daughter of Mahipal, a resident of the Lakhanpur village of the Kayamganj police circle in Farrukhabad district.

Soron station house officer (SHO) Ripudaman Singh said, "During interrogation, the accused initially claimed to be Anamika Singh, daughter of Subhas Singh. However, her documents are in the name of Anamika Shukla, daughter of Subhas Chandra Shukla."

The accused claimed that she paid the hefty amount to Raj, a Mainpuri-based man for the job and was posted in Faridpur Kasturba Gandhi Balika Vidyalaya (KGBV) since August 2018.

The police are now trying to zero in on the man who got her the job.

The police also believe that it could be possible that multiple candidates used credentials and 'eligibility' of Anamika Shukla - the real one still remains elusive.

According to the Uttar Pradesh government, five more Anamika Shuklas have been found working in KGBVs in Ambedkar Nagar, Baghpat, Aligarh, Saharanpur and Prayagraj districts. She has reportedly drawn a combined salary of Rs one crore in the past one year.

Teachers in KGBV, a residential setup for girls from weaker sections of the society, are appointed on contract and are paid approximately Rs 30,000 per month. Each block in a district has one Kasturba Gandhi school.

Basic Education Minister Satish Dwivedi said that the incident was 'shocking' and the police would unravel the entire racket in the case. "No officer, employee who connived with this teacher in providing her job at KGBV and subsequently hiding it, will be spared," he said.
