A Grave Betrayal: Delhi Woman Raped by Fiancé's Cousin in Uttarakhand Resort

A chilling incident has sent shockwaves through the quiet hills of Lansdowne, Uttarakhand, as a Delhi woman has reported a horrifying ordeal: she was allegedly raped by her fiancé’s cousin at a local resort. The accused has since been arrested, bringing a glimmer of justice to a deeply disturbing case of betrayal and violence.

According to police reports, the victim, a resident of Delhi, had traveled to the picturesque hill station of Lansdowne with her fiancé and his cousin.

What was intended to be a pleasant getaway turned into a nightmare on the night of January 27. After having dinner together, the fiancé's cousin, identified as the accused, allegedly forced the woman into a room where he then subjected her to sexual assault.

Adding another layer of distress to the already traumatic event, reports indicate that the victim’s fiancé was also present at the resort.

Shockingly, he reportedly did not intervene or come to her aid during the horrifying incident, raising serious questions about his conduct and complicity in the face of such a grave crime.

Following the horrific ordeal, the brave woman immediately approached the police, filing a First Information Report (FIR) detailing the assault.

Acting swiftly on her complaint, the local authorities registered a case against the accused under Indian Penal Code (IPC) Sections 376 (rape) and 506 (criminal intimidation).

The swift action by the police led to the arrest of the accused, who is now in custody as investigations continue. This incident serves as a stark reminder of the hidden dangers that can lurk even within trusted circles and underscores the critical importance of accountability and immediate legal action against perpetrators of sexual violence.

Authorities assure that all necessary steps are being taken to ensure justice is served for the victim.
