Master Stroke: Unnao gang rape victim's painful story raises question on women safety in the country
The father of an 18-year-old woman, who alleged that she was raped by BJP MLA Kuldeep Singh Sengar and his brothers, died while in judicial custody here today.
Pappu Singh, around 50, was rushed to a hospital from the district jail last night and died during treatment today.
District Magistrate Ravi Kumar NG said that the postmortem examination of the victim would be conducted by a panel of doctors to ascertain the cause of death.
He said that a probe had been ordered into the matter.
Pappu was arrested on April 5 under the Arms Act after he was allegedly beaten up by Anil Singh, the MLA's brother.
The daughter of the deceased had yesterday tried to immolate herself near the chief minister's residence in Lucknow, alleging that she was gang-raped by the BJP MLA and his brothers.
The immolation bid was, however, foiled by the police.
