Woman raped in Nilphamari

A 27-year-old mother of three was allegedly abducted from home and raped in Dimla upazila of the district Saturday night.

The victim's father filed a case accusing nine with Dimla Police Station Sunday night. The prime accused Abdur Rahim, 33, is a farmer.

“About nine of them broke into my daughter's house late in the night and tied me up to a pole outside the house and then disappeared,” the victim's mother told The Daily Star.

She added that she recognised some of the men including Abdur Rahim, Mister, Delwar and Chetona.

Resident Medical Officer Asad Alam of the hospital, where the victim is being treated, said they found evidence of rape.

“I was raped and left in a deserted shoal in a field with my hands and legs tied,” the grieving woman said.

A team of police rescued her the next morning about a kilometre away from her home and sent her to a hospital.

Her elderly mother remained tied to the pole until police reached there.

Moazzem Hossain, officer-in-charge of Dimla Police Station said police were looking for the accused.
