On Wednesday, two Indian Army officers were brutally assaulted, and one of their female friends was allegedly raped while they were on a picnic in Indore district, Madhya Pradesh. The incident, reported by PTI, has drawn significant attention and concern.
The two officers, aged 23 and 24, were undergoing the Young Officers (YO) course at the Infantry School in Mhow cantonment. They had gone out for a picnic on Tuesday with two female friends. Around 2 a.m. on Wednesday, a group of 6-7 unidentified men arrived at their picnic spot on the Mhow-Mandleshwar road and began attacking one of the officers and a female friend who were sitting in their car.
The commotion attracted the attention of the other officer and the remaining woman, who were situated on a nearby hilltop. The attackers then demanded a ransom of ₹10 lakh from the other officer. Seizing the opportunity, the officer contacted his seniors in Mhow, who alerted the local police.
