A case has been filed accusing six people of raping a woman inside a microbus in the Siddhirganj area of Narayanganj.
The 19-year-old victim filed the case at Siddhirganj Police Station around midnight on Sunday, said Officer-in-Charge (OC) Shahinur Alam.
The victim has been sent to Narayanganj General Hospital for a medical examination.
According to the case statement, the incident took place on Friday afternoon in a secluded area of Jalkuri Dashpipe, where the woman was allegedly raped inside a parked microbus.
All the accused are under 30 years old, the OC said, adding that their names are being withheld for the sake of the investigation.
The victim said that the accused were her neighbors and known to her family.
In 2017, her mother borrowed Tk 4 lakh from one of them, which was fully repaid by 2022. However, the lender did not return the non-judicial stamp that had been signed as a mortgage document.
On Friday, the woman was reportedly called to the Signboard area on the pretext of returning the document, taken into the microbus, and later raped inside the vehicle, she alleged.
Quoting the victim, OC Shahinur said the second accused committed the rape, while the others assisted him. After the incident, she was dropped off near the Signboard area.
“Police are trying to identify and arrest those involved,” he added.
