Swarajya Magazine reported the complaint by a woman named Munni Kumari states that of the three men who entered the house at 1 am, two were masked and one was completely naked. The naked man began to rape her mother, while one of the masked men turned towards her and tore off her kurta. The other masked man pointed a pistol at her brother's head. A scuffle ensued and the family managed to get out of their grip, but one of the men tried to strangulate her brother. After a lot of struggle, the men left, but not before thrashing them and throwing a cycle over them.
Kumari named one of the members as Laddu Alam.
Munni's brother, Munna, told Swarajya over the phone that the men told them to sell off their house in a week and leave, or sell it to them for Rs 16 lakh.
He told the magazine that the men boasted that they have support of the local Congress leader.
“We have told them that this house belongs to our ancestors and there is no way we are leaving. But they use force. They beat me up last month also,” he told the magazine.
