The accused also took gold and money from her claiming it was for various rituals that would ensure peace and prosperity and a stable government job for her husband.
Five persons were arrested in Thane and Palghar districts in Maharashtra for allegedly raping a 35-year-old woman repeatedly after promising to remove "vastu mistakes" in her house and other "evils spells" through black magic, a police official said on Sunday.
The five persons who have been arrested are the victim's husband's friends and they told her that some evil spell had been cast on her husband and that to regain peace she would have to be part of some rituals, the official said.
"The accused started frequenting the house of the victim from April 2018 and would conduct rituals when the victim was alone. They would give her a spiked drink calling it 'panchamrit' and would rape her," he said.
