Another heinous crime has been reported from Jharkhand’s Simdega district where a 19-year-old girl was allegedly gang-raped by four. The incident has been reported from a village under the Jaldega police station area, some 125km from the state capital Ranchi, police said.

According to the police officials, all the four accused have been arrested and process of filing an FIR in the case has been initiated.

Jaldega police station in-charge Birendra Sharma said, “All four accused have been arrested after being identified by the girl. An FIR in the case is being filed. The girl had come to a relative’s house in a village under Jaldega police station area on Saturday.” “She visited a weekly market on Monday. While returning, a youth offered her a seat in his auto-rickshaw and after that he took her to an abandoned room where he along with his friend allegedly raped her,” Sharma said quoting the statement of the girl.

After the very next day, she was raped by four men for two days at the quarter she was taken to. Soon after fleeing from the place, she registered the complaint at Jaldega police station on Thursday.

The officials also informed that they will send the girl for a medical examination on Friday and will proceed further in the investigation.
