Hyderabad: Six Men Sentenced to 20 Years in 2016 Attempted Gang Rape Case
HYDERABAD, December 31, 2025 – A Rangareddy district court has sentenced six men to 20 years of rigorous imprisonment in connection with the abduction and attempted gang rape of a young woman near Rajiv Gandhi International Airport (RGIA) in 2016. The court also ordered a compensation of ₹3 lakh to be paid to the victim.
The convicts, identified as Abdul Raheman (46), Mohd Abdul Kareem (50), Mohd Abdul Raheem (47), Syed Abdul Faheem (31), Mohd Imran (50) and Bandari Yadaiah (57), were found guilty under various sections of the Indian Penal Code, including abduction, criminal confinement, attempt to commit gang rape, assault, and criminal intimidation.
The case dates back to October 10, 2016, when the victim was lured to a remote location near Aramghar by an acquaintance who claimed family members were waiting for her in a car. Instead, she was forcibly taken to a farmhouse in Indira Nagar, Shamshabad, where the perpetrators attempted to rape her while threatening her with a knife.
The victim managed to escape the farmhouse, fled through thorny bushes, and reported the crime to RGIA police the following day. The accused were apprehended on October 13, 2016, and have been in judicial custody since.
The prosecution successfully presented evidence during the trial, leading to the conviction of the six men. The five main accused received 20 years for the attempt to commit gang rape and additional sentences for abduction, criminal intimidation, causing hurt, and wrongful confinement. The sixth accused was sentenced for his role in criminal confinement.
