PATNA/BUXAR: Seven people allegedly gang-raped a 28-year-old dalit woman after throttling her five-year-old son to death at a village under the Murar police station area in Buxar district on Saturday.
SHO of Murar police station Manoj Kumar Pathak said the incident came to light on Sunday after the woman’s father approached the police and lodged an FIR against two known and five unknown people in connection with the crime.

“As per the FIR, the woman had gone to a bank along with her son for some work, but didn’t return home on time. Her family members finally found her near a pond in the village around 3am on Sunday. The body of the woman’s son was fished out from the pond,” Pathak said, adding the woman’s father alleged that his grandson was killed by the accused in front of his mother’s eyes.
The SHO said the rape survivor was undergoing treatment at sadar hospital in Buxar and her condition was stable.
Buxar SP Neeraj Kumar Singh said one of the accused, Meena Ram (50), was arrested. “Another named accused – Bhola Ram – is evading arrest. Raids are on to arrest all those involved in the crime. The woman’s medical examination was conducted by a board of doctors and the report is awaited. Her statement will be recorded in the court of judicial magistrate on Monday,” the SP added.
Dumraon SDPO Krishna Kumar Singh said the woman has sour relations with her husband and she lives with her parents. “The woman’s husband was staying at the house of his in-laws for the last two days in a bid to convince his wife to return home,” the SDPO added.
