New Delhi: In a shocking incident, a 30-year-old tribal woman was gangraped by at least 10 persons, including her estranged husband, all in an inebriated condition, paraded naked and even forced to drink urine at a village in Madhya Pradesh's Khandwa district.

A few months ago, the woman and her husband had a dispute over a piece of land, following which he allegedly attacked her with an axe.

The woman registered a complaint with the police and then moved into her parents' house in another village along with her 10-year-old son.

On Tuesday night, the woman's husband allegedly asked her to meet him in their village to reach a "compromise" in the axe attack case.

When the woman and her son reached their husband's village, they were allegedly tied up and locked in a store room by the husband and nine other men.

The woman was then allegedly thrashed and gang-raped.

The victim narrated the ordeal to their parents and thereafter petitioned the police, who swung into action and arrested nine people in this connection. Further investigations are on, police said.
