Meerut: An alleged gang-rape victim tried to immolate herself in the office of Senior Superintendent Police (SSP) here on Monday.

The woman had filed a complaint of gang rape. Alleging inaction in the case on the part of the police, she attempted self-immolation at the senior police official’s office. Woman police personnel somehow managed to thwart her self-immolation attempt.

I have spoken with the concerned investigative officer and was informed that no strong evidence has been found yet.”

Alleging that it was a pressure tactic by the woman, Kumar asserted that action will be taken against the woman for trying to attempt suicide.
