Shahdol (Madhya Pradesh) [India], March 22: A house of the main accused of the gang rape of a 28-year old was demolished on Tuesday following the district administration's order.

"The other two accused are his servants who live in a rented house," she added.
According to Mukesh Vaishya, Additional Superintendent of Police, the accused had an old acquaintance with the woman. He and his two servants had gang-raped the woman, following which they poisoned her to death.
