Minor Girl Gang-Raped in Assam, Five Arrested

A minor girl in a village near the Indo-Bhutan border was allegedly gang-raped by six individuals, including two minors. Five suspects were arrested on Tuesday. The accused reportedly shared an obscene video of the crime on WhatsApp after failing to blackmail the 16-year-old victim. The crime, which occurred in August, was reported late due to threats against the victim. A case has been registered under the POCSO Act. The incident has sparked outrage in the local community.
