A New Town woman is accused of luring a young job seeker into a sex ring, forcing the victim to share a bed with two Ghanaian football players at a city guest house, and then gang raping the victim. On the basis of the lady’s accusation, the New Town police detained the woman, the two footballers, and the woman.
According to the police, the young woman in her late 20s was divorced from her spouse and living by herself in a leased apartment in Gouranganagar in New Town. She had, however, asked her neighbor Lisa Collins for financial assistance because she was jobless, and Lisa had promised to find her employment.

Collins allegedly requested the lady to accompany her on a job interview on May 16. She was made to spend the night with the two Ghanaian footballers when they took them to a guest home in Picnic Garden. The woman claimed the two guys repeatedly had sex with her throughout the night without her will and were only released the following morning, according to a Bidhannagar City Police officer.
She spent two days in her rented home, where she was battered and wounded, before summoning the guts and fortitude to show up Friday at the New Town police station and file a complaint against Collins and the two footballers.
In response to her accusation, New Town police first detained Collins before escorting her to the Tiljala residence where the two footballers had already been detained.
Both Ghanaians, Moses Zutah (24) and Christopher Nars (28), arrived in India on student visas and were employed as part-time footballers for various clubs throughout the state in exchange for cash.
Infractions of IPC sections 376 D (gangrape), 120B (criminal conspiracy), and 34 (common intention) were used to charge them. The three may be sentenced to harsh life imprisonment if found guilty. On Sunday, they were brought before a Barasat court and placed in police custody.
(The victim’s identify has not been disclosed in order to respect her privacy and in accordance with Supreme Court guidelines for cases involving sexual assault.)
