The girl was reportedly enrolled at a private university in a biotechnology course and has been admitted to hospital, in a critical condition.

“She informed me that Shivam locked her in a room for three days and urinated on her. He also burnt her private parts thrice everyday for the last 3 days. He used a knife and cut her at various places in the body. My daughter came to Gurugram to study Bio-technology. She became friends with Shivam (accused) through online apps. Shivam raped my daughter, too. In the guise of marrying her, Shivam did all of this to her. The condition of my daughter is very bad,” said the victim’s mother.

The accused, named Shivam as per officials had completed his B.Sc and had recently moved to Gurugram to stay with his sister while searching for a job. According to police, the couple met in September 2025 and had been living together in a PG accommodation in Sector 69 for the last few months.

The victim’s lawyer, Reena Rai, also made serious allegations regarding the nature of the assault and the sections invoked in the FIR.

“She (victim) was being tortured by her partner. I spoke with her parents and they informed me that he set her (victim) private parts on fire using hand sanitiser. He burnt her entire body and did dirty things inside the washroom and did not even let her go out. Somehow, she called her parents.”

The lawyer also claimed that the medical examination had confirmed rape but questioned the charges filed: “Her father also confirmed that the medical examination has confirmed rape. But the section filed at the Badshahpur police station is only for minor injuries... This is also an attempt to murder, and rape charges have not been filed. Whatever confirmation was given, it was provided by his father...”

Describing the victim’s physical condition, Rai as per a report by TOI said: “Her face was completely swollen from the beating, and her hair was completely cut off... They burned her private parts and inserted something inside. That's what I heard. Her father was saying, it's like the Nirbhaya case... The victim's mother is not talking at all right now. Her father also seems completely unstable.”
