Rape: 2 arrested for raping teenage sisters, extorting 10L | Noida News

Noida: Two youths were arrested on Monday for allegedly raping two minor sisters, aged 13 and 15, and extorting Rs 1 crore by blackmailing their families. The arrested – one of them is 25 and the other 23 – are from the same village as the survivors. Police received a complaint from the girls’ father on Sunday. He alleged that the accused made a video of them after raping his daughters and later used it to extort Rs 1 crore from them since January. One of the accused, who works in a factory, is married and has a child. Pawan Kumar, ACP-1, Greater Noida, said an FIR was filed against the two men at Beta 2 police station under sections 376 (rape), 384 (extortion) of the Indian Penal Code and relevant sections of the POCSO Act. An investigation found that the men had lured the girls with the promise of marriage. When they demanded money, the girls stole it from their grandfather’s locker. “Last week, when their grandfather checked his locker, he found that Rs 10 lakh was missing. The girls later admitted to giving it to the two men,” a senior officer said. The accused were produced before a magistrate and remanded in judicial custody on Monday.
