Consequently, the police had reached the residence of the victim where the victim was found present with her family members. Her statement was recorded under Section 164 CrPC, wherein she stated that she was in a relationship with the accused for the past four years and on the day of Raksha Bandhan he took her to his house and established physical relations with her.
