Married Woman Alleges Rape and Forced Conversion; 2 Arrested A married woman in Nagpur has alleged that she was subjected to rape and forced conversion to Islam by two men, leading to the arrest of the accused. According to police, the survivor filed a First Information Report (FIR) detailing the incidents, which allegedly took place over several days. The woman, who manages a property-related business, claimed she was coerced into participating in rituals and forced to consume meat. The incidents began when the accused, identified as Ayyaz and Madare, allegedly brought a liquid in a plastic bottle and forced her to drink it while chanting in Urdu. They also reportedly blew something on her face and committed rape, describing the acts as hypnosis and black magic. On May 31, Madare and his accomplice took her to Kalmeshwar, where a third accused, Hazrat Maulana from Tamiya village in Chhindwara district, Madhya Pradesh, performed rituals. During the ritual, the woman was allegedly compelled to utter “Qabul hai qabul hai,” a phrase associated with conversion. Maulana reportedly declared her converted to Islam and married to Ayyaz. The group then took her to a hotel where Ayyaz raped her again. The woman alleged that the accused continued to visit her residence and assaulted her sexually multiple times afterward. Initially, she did not report the incidents due to fear but later informed her husband and approached the Sonegaon police station, where an FIR was registered. Police have invoked provisions under the anti-black magic law and are conducting a detailed investigation. Zonal DCP Rishikesh Reddy stated that forensic analysis of seized electronic devices, verification of financial transactions, and recording of witness statements are underway.#nagpur #kalmeshwar #ayyaz #madare #chhindwara_district
