A disheartening incident took place in Kerala where an elderly woman was raped. The woman approached the Kayamkulam police and informed them that the pictures of the rape were sent by the accused himself.
The accused had entered into the house of the 51-year-old woman and raped her. This woman is a celebrated Malayalam TV series actress. The incident actually took place in October 2018. It all started when she and the accused and the victim had befriended each other on a shooting set.
The accused forwarded her images on WhatsApp to the victim’s husband and friends. A police official at Kayamkulam police station stated that the accused is booked under Section 367 for the Indian Penal Code (IPC) for a punishment of rape under the IT Act. However, the accused is absconding from India.
Earlier this month, another 65-year-old woman was gang-raped by three youngsters. The accused were inebriated when the incident took place. The woman used to work as a house helper in Vyasarpadi, Chennai. She was sleeping in her house when a teenager along with two friends walked in and raped her. One of them was caught immediately by the police as the woman made an alarming sound, but the rest of the two fled from the scene. The police are still looking for them.
