Lucknow: The Central Bureau of Investigation is expected to file a status report on November 25 on the investigation into the alleged gang rape and murder of a 19-year-old Dalit woman in Uttar Pradesh’s Hathras.
The Lucknow bench of the Allahabad high court had ordered the CBI to file the status report.
On September 14, the 19-year-old Dalit victim was allegedly raped by four members of the Thakur caste in Hathras district when she had gone to the fields to collect cattle fodder.
She was also partially paralysed in the attack. As her condition deteriorated, she was moved to Delhi’s Safdarjung Hospital on September 28 and died in the early hours of September 29.
So far, UP Police has arrested four upper-caste men -- Sandeep Singh, Ravi, Ramu and Luvkush Sikarwar – for their alleged role in the incident. The accused are lodged in Delhi’s Alipur jail.
