The Thiruvananthapuram Rural police have obtained further evidence to firm up the case pertaining to the gang rape of a woman in Kadinamkulam by seven people including her husband.

The investigating team led by Attingal DySP S.Y. Suresh took all of the accused, viz, Mansoor, Akbar Shah, Arshad, Noufal, the victim’s husband, Rajan and Manoj to Rajan’s house in Puthukurichy where they were accused of hatching the conspiracy.
