Bangalore: 23-year-old garment seller Offered a Drop, Gang-raped


 BANGALORE, Aug 22 (Iexpress): Three men, including the son of a BAMUL board director, allegedly raped a 23-year-old woman after offering to drop her home on Wednesday. The incident was reported from Tavarekere on Magadi Road on the outskirts of the city. After the incident, the girl ran to the main road, her clothes in disarray, crying for help.

The drunk gang took her to a farmhouse in Tippagondanahalli near Tavarekere and repeatedly raped her, police said. The men have been identified as Arun Kumar Gowda alias Gooli (24), Kempa (24) and Mahadev (43), all residents of Magadi.

Gowda is the son of Narasimha Murthy, board of director at the Bangalore Urban, Rural and Ramanagaram District Co-Operative Milk Producers Societies Union (BAMUL), Magadi taluk. He runs a cement and steel business in Magadi, while Kempa works in a timber yard. Mahadeva is employed at the farmhouse.

The girl (23), who sells garments on the footpath near the Kempegowda Bus Station in Majestic, was waiting for a bus at 9.30 pm when two men appeared in a car and offered to drop her to her house in

Vijayanagar. She believed them and got in. Gowda allegedly drove towards the farmhouse belonging to his friend Muniraju, while Kempa pinned her down in the back seat.

Mahadev, who was at the farmhouse, also joined them in allegedly raping her. The girl escaped after Gowda and Kempa had left, and was sobbing and seeking help on the main road. A cab driver pitied her and drove her to the police station, where she explained what had happened.

Police claimed the three men had confessed to the crime.

    If they have confessed, what are you waiting for, hang them by their ba**s. Let it be anyone, just hang and finish them. Our earth is burdened with many unwanted elements.

    Hey velano or whoever you are, there is no need to dig into political affairs thats it is congress or BJP. First of all we are all indians and your comments are all stupid. Please dont simply comment. I totally agree to Mr.Peter Lewis, castration is the best medicine for these goons.

    absolutely unacceptable story. Knowing current situation, so many crimes happening around, speaking to strangers came in car, telling them where she is want to go, accepting their offer with out knowing any of them ... not digesting at all. One thing is clear, if we do mistake , it's we end up in trouble and we can not blame anybody else. I do mistake , I will be paid for may fault. I can not blame anybody. Same way, this girl put herself in trouble and now crying for help... who will help. We can not just blame police , politicians, system , law and order and all. it's our responsibility also to be safe and responsible. So, may be a fault story or self accepted trouble. That's all I can say.

    KMF director may knocking doors of politician to release his son our of police custody, anyway this is a another police record nothing will change in the society,
    going alone with a strangers car during night is a biggest mistake done by girl.
    Shame on father who perfectly kept his name as Gooli, he shud be killed with goli.

    To all those who doubt the victim,
    In bangalore due to poor and costly public transport especially in late hours people rely on private cabs which transport people for a small amount

    Sir,This could have happened to anyone.Men would have been mugged or women raped.Not everybody is smart enough to analyse the situation.Sometimes commonsense blacksout when situation is not in our favour , like she was waiting for a bus, maybe she could have thought she could save some return fare when she was offered a lift.Never accuse a women's character unless you know it damn 300%.You are accountable for that in front of Allah.
