Paradip: An Accredited Social Health Activist (ASHA), who went missing three days ago after allegedly being gang raped, was rescued from Gadakujanga in Odisha’s Jagatsinghpur district on Monday while attempting suicide.
According to sources, she was rescued by locals near a railway track and taken to Gadakujanga. Later, her father reached the spot and brought her back home.
The gang-rape survivor contemplated suicide unable to bear mental anguish, the sources added.
