Woman abducted, dumped after assault in city

A 28-year-old school teacher was abducted from near her apartment in Sarjapur by three men on Sunday night.

The victim was later assaulted and abandoned near Kasavanahalli in an unconscious state in the early hours of Monday.

The victim's mother told the police that she left home on Sunday evening and returned on Monday.

Eye-witnesses informed the police that three men came in a car and dragged the victim inside. The victim screamed and kicked the doors to escape but the suspects sped away.

A couple who witnessed the incident alerted the police control room and gave the registration number of the car.

Some eye-witnesses tried to chase the car but failed to track  it down.

A senior police officer said the victim has suffered multiple injuries and is admitted to St John's hospital.

Dr Sanjeev, medical superintendent, St Johns Medical College, said that a woman was reported to the Emergency Ward on Monday afternoon.

"She is stable, but she is undergoing a rapid assessment with investigations," said Dr Sanjeev.

"Some tests need to be run on her to inspect if there is internal bleeding. She walked in alone to the hospital and is traumatised," he said.

DCP (Whitefield) Abdul Ahad said, "We received information on Sunday night that a woman was abducted from Kasavanahalli Road under Bellandur police station limits around 10 pm on Sunday. Based on the information, the police registered a kidnap case and formed four teams to nab the kidnappers and rescue the woman."

The police are waiting for the victim to recover to record her statement.
