 The News Cover: A 17-year-old girl in Uttar Pradesh’s Lalitpur district has accused 28 people of raping her for many years. She has said that her father, many of his close relatives, members of the Bahujan Samaj Party, and the Samajwadi Party have raped her. In her complaint, she said that when she was in 6th standard, her father used to show her pornographic films. One day he had taken her to empty farmland where he raped her. He told her not to tell anyone about the incident otherwise he would take her mother's life. The girl had no option but to oblige. The girl's father took her to a hotel and gave her snacks filled with sedatives. 

She then fell unconscious in the hotel room. The father then allowed his relatives and members of political parties to rape her. SP leader Tilak Yadav and his friends also allegedly raped her. The father took money from them to rape her. The girl's maternal uncle, relatives, and many uncles also raped her. She suffered at the hands of these men and also her cousins. Her grandmother was also aware of the incident but hushed it up. 

After years of torture, the girl somehow managed to go to the police and filed a complaint. The police shocked over the incident filed an FIR against the 8 accused. SP leader Tilak Yadav has said he did not rape the girl and the allegations were false. If implicated he has threatened to commit suicide as being an SP leader he can not bear to see his image ruined.
