On September 11, the complainant named Sohan Bharti, along with his girlfriend and a friend went to visit the Ashtbhuja Hills (Vindhyachal) on a bike. While Sohan was sitting in the jungle with his girlfriend, four men came and started recording their video. They asked the couple for ransom and threatened them which stirred a brawl between the two groups.
Meanwhile, Sohan's friend recorded this incident which was edited to showcase it as a gangrape and posted on Instagram.
