A woman has alleged that she was raped by four men, including her estranged husband, inside a lawyer's chamber here, police said on Tuesday. The victim claimed that the incident took place in a chambers of the lawyer practicing in Patiala court complex. She claimed that her husband's lawyer called her to the court on pretext of settling her divorce petition. She claimed her husband and sister-in-law took her to the chamber where she was raped by the lawyer, his assistant and her husband and her husband's brother-in-law.There are often negative consequences when people make the mistake of taking metaphors literally, but in this case, I suppose something probably got lost in translation.

Guys, it's a metaphor
It would appear some of India's lawyers are less than perfectly clear on how they are expected to go about divorce-raping their clients:

Oh, we thought they said the force rape. Very, very sorry. Thank you, come again.
Perhaps he figured he was gonna get raped by her in court, and decided to turn the tables. The lawyer, figuring he was going to be unable to rape the husband financially, decided to join in and rape the wife literally. Doesn't explain the brother in law. Probably just piling on at that point. After all, one is rape, two is gang rape, and three is still gang rape.
When the get the judge on board though, I think it's game over?
"...her husband's brother-in-law."
That would make that guy her brother, unless the husband has another wife. Is it legal to have more than one wife in India?
If her own brother is in on the rape then that's a crap ton of hate. Which makes her a world class bitch. Or each one of those men are truly evil in the fullest sense. In any case, must be real winners all around.
That would make that guy her brother, unless the husband has another wife. Is it legal to have more than one wife in India?
No, that would be her husband's sister's husband.
Wife metaphorically raping her husband in court, versus wife literally getting raped. I suppose it is a kind of equivalence.
Nah, the brother-in-law could be the husband of the soon to be divorced husband's sister.
Obviously a sign that we need to expand the H1-B program.
She was asking for it? Metaphorically speaking of course.

I larfed, I admit.
I'm not concerned unless it was rape rape.
All cultures are equal!!!
Unfortunately, I would not doubt this story. In the Middle-East countries, a divorce is a grave act of shame against a whole family. I could see this taking place in Syria, Lebanon, Iraq, Iran...
I don't know enough about India, but I wouldn't be surprised it if spread Eastern into India.
The violence in India lately does seem like it is reflecting more and more of its Middle-Eastern neighbors...
In Soviet India, Divorce Rapes You!
That is one way of keeping divorce rates low
If the judge wasn't there, it didn't happen, and this is McScaRaRa's fault!
It was what I said about financial rape...
For example, I was raped everyday this week and didn't shed a tear cuz it was too cold to cry; having the postmaster drop off more bills, collection phone calls, BK docs, lost checks, paying bills, paying taxes and worst of all; shopping. That was financial rape.
Paging Sir Charles Napier, white courtesy telephone...
