Ghaziabad Woman Alleges Gang-Rape, Arrested After Claims Found False

A woman has been arrested in Ghaziabad for repeatedly levelling allegations of rape, gang-rape and kidnapping against her husband, who was earlier her live-in partner, and his friends. Police said her latest allegation was found to be false and she had changed her statements several times in previous cases. Her husband is also in jail based on one of the complaints filed by her. 

Officials said the woman filed three complaints and three first information reports (FIR) and changed her statements several times, even submitting applications seeking that the complaints filed by her be withdrawn. Police said her last FIR, in which she alleged she was gangraped by her husband’s friends and a bottle had been inserted in her private parts, was found to be false and she was arrested on Friday.
