UP Woman Alleges Abduction, Rape, Forced Conversion for Marriage

A woman from Barabanki in Uttar Pradesh has accused eight people, including a police constable, of abducting her, raping her, and forcing her to convert to Islam and marry one of the accused.

The victim claims she was brainwashed through social media and was forced to undergo abortion twice.

The police have registered a case and detained three individuals for questioning.

The accused may argue that the relationship was consensual and the conversion was voluntary.
