The woman told police that she first came in contact with a man through social media in 2021. He introduced himself as Sahil and presented himself as a member of a financially well-off Hindu family. He spoke about marriage and gradually built trust. Later, she discovered that his real name was Faheem.
What began as an online interaction soon spiralled into a nightmare that the survivor says involved gang rape, blackmail, physical torture, threats, and pressure to convert to Islam.
According to the FIR registered at Jamia Nagar Police Station, the woman was called to Batla House in 2022, where several men gang raped her. She stated that one of her own friends participated in recording videos of the assault. Those videos later became instruments of blackmail and intimidation.
The survivor further told police that she was later taken to Meerut, where she faced repeated sexual assault; the details emerging from the complaint point towards sustained exploitation rather than a one-time crime.
Disturbing Details of Psychological Torture
The woman’s statement contains deeply disturbing allegations that reveal the extent of fear and brutality she says she endured. She told police that Faheem used blood and animal meat to terrorise her psychologically.
“He used to soak me in blood to scare me. He would shower me with animal meat to frighten me,” the woman said in her statement.
She also named a man identified as Tasleem Maulvi, stating that he subjected her to further torture during the period of abuse.
The case has triggered outrage not only because of the allegations of gang rape but also due to the claims of religious coercion and systematic intimidation. The survivor stated that she was pressured to convert to Islam while being kept under fear and blackmail.
Arrests Made, Probe Continues
South East Delhi Police confirmed that four people have been arrested in connection with the case. Officials stated that since the first incident of gang rape took place in Batla House, the FIR was registered at Jamia Nagar Police Station.
The investigation has also uncovered another troubling layer. According to the FIR, Faheem had previously been arrested by Gurugram Police in 2025. The woman stated that she felt relieved after police seized the mobile phone that apparently contained her photos and videos, believing the material could no longer be used against her.
However, the threats did not stop.
The survivor told police that Faheem later contacted her from inside Mandoli Jail. She also reported receiving threatening calls from a Dubai-based number, raising serious concerns over the reach and confidence of the individuals involved.
The woman further informed investigators that she later came to know about the alleged involvement of Faheem and some of his relatives in illegal arms-dealing activities. Police are now examining all aspects of the complaint as part of the ongoing investigation.
This case is not merely another addition to Delhi’s growing list of crimes against women. It is a grim reminder of how manipulation, fear, and organised abuse can destroy lives while victims remain trapped in silence for years.
