The lady who was identified as Iren has been hospitalised and apparently undergoing treatment. It is said that the woman identified one of the people who raped her.Unfortunately, the suspect has not been arrested.

Irene said that she was left on the railway line so that a train could crush her but through God’s mercy she was not killed by the train instead his legs were cut off.

According to her, she thanks, God because she survived. She is appealing to well-wishers to come to her aid so that they can help her settle the hospital bills.

Apparently, the doctors are saying that the single mother is out of danger and they believe that the medication they are giving to her will be of great help.
