NEW DELHI: The woman who accused BJP MLA of raping her in Unnao was seriously injured in an accident involving car and truck. It has been reported that her mother and lawyer died in the accident. They were on their way after visiting a relative in Uttar Pradesh's Raebareli when the vehicle was hit by a truck.

The incident occurred on Sunday when the mother and daughter were in the car, which was being driven by their lawyer Mahendra Singh.

In 2017, the victim alleged that BJP MLA Kuldeep Singh Sengar raped her. Following her complaint, the girl’s family said that they are being threatened. The rape case came to light in April 2018, when the woman attempted suicide outside Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath's house.

The victim's father was also allegedly beaten up by the police. He then died in custody. The accused MLA and his brother Atul Sengar is now in jail.
