Unfortunatly the rapist see that and take a knife in his hand from his and the rapist is her husband relative. After got raped she was threatend and blackmailed that if she says anything about this then he will destroy her familylife. The rapist asked her forcely to call him everyday and talk to him on phone. The victim was afraid and sometime call him on mobile. If she did not call someday, the rapist came to her house with some excuse like cares her daughter and blackmailed her why she didn't call him. Over phone the rapist asked her for having sexual relationship many more times.. Now the victim can not tolerate the things and told everything to her family and her husband.

what should you do? for that I have to know who are you! literally you can be anyone and its kinda weird to guess in wilderness. be that as it may whosoever you may be the law is on everyone's side. the delay would dilute the offence while the gravity of offence is enough to ignore the consequences of delay. im not into politics to comment on the utility or otherwise of political connection. being a part of justice dispensation institution im at arms length with politician or executive.

Go and depose before the magistrate because police won't help in this regard probably. also information should be passed on to the women helpline. stay strong because if you choose to fight it will be long fight

in rape cases, it is never too late to register FIR. go to the police immediately and lodge FIR. there might not be medical report in this case to support the allegation of rape but there are other several factors and circumstantial evidence which might be helpful in proving the offence.
