The incident took place early in the morning, when over two dozen unidentified miscreants forced their way into the victims’ house and after robbing them, held the family hostage before taking away the girl with them.

“The girl has told me that she was raped by five men. The incident took place at about 600-700 metres from the girl’s house. We are probing the matter and a team has been constituted to crack the case,” senior superintendent of police Manzil Saini told reporters.

The miscreants also beat up the victim’s father, who sustained head injury.

The victim has been sent for a medical examination to confirm rape.
