In an age when women are still being raped every day and are struggling to find justice, it is shameful for another woman to falsely cry rape just to trap some men and settle scores with them.
A 32-year-old homemaker from Kalwa recently alleged that she was raped by attackers who also flung a scalding chemical at her. But cops have revealed that all her charges against the six men, three of whom were arrested from Kalaburagi in Karnataka this month, are false. The woman has admitted that she cooked up the assault story to teach the six men a lesson after they had a dispute with her husband a while ago.
