Unnao: Makhi Police have booked five people for allegedly threatening to kill a representative of the Unnao rape survivor's uncle on Saturday (August 31). The representative, in his complaint, said that while he was returning home from an Unnao court on Thursday after meeting the assistant of the advocate in the rape case, he was confronted by the five people. The police did not reveal the name of the complainant citing security reasons.
He added that the five-member gang allegedly beat him and also threatened to kill him. Meanwhile, the Makhi Police have booked the five for attempt to murder. The accused are identified as Balendra Singh, Rohit Singh and Dharmendra Singh and two unknown persons.
The Unnao rape survivor is battling for life at the AIIMS after she suffered critical injuries in a car-truck collision while she was travelling along with some family members and her lawyer on July 28. Two of her aunts died in the car-truck collision.
The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI), which has taken over the investigation into the accident, has booked 10 people for murder, including Uttar Pradesh MLA Kuldeep Singh Sengar, who is already in jail, charged with the rape of the woman in 2017 when she was a minor.
