Once inside the village, the male residents were taken away from their homes, while the forces searched the village. It is alleged that the men from the security forces raped the women of the village. It is alleged that more than 100 women were raped by the search party, including a pregnant woman who gave birth to a baby with a fractured arm, and a deaf and dumb girl.
