Gurugram:
Police here have tried a man for repeatedly raping a 52-year-old woman over more than a year, officials said Thursday.
According to the complaint filed by the woman, the defendant used to work for her husband as a driver and also helped with household chores, they said.
On December 10, 2019, when she was home alone, the driver entered her room and molested her, the complainant alleged.
When she resisted, the suspect allegedly threatened to kill her husband and rape her, she added. After that day, the accused allegedly raped her repeatedly for more than a year and threatened to kill her husband when she tried to stop him, police said, citing the complainant.
“I have been silent for a long time, but now I have finally decided to approach the police,” the woman said in her complaint.
In this regard, the women’s police station in Sector 51 registered an FIR against the driver on Wednesday under IPC Sections 376 (Rape) and 506 (Criminal Harassment), police officials said.
A senior police officer said they were verifying the facts and action would be taken under the law.
