An attempt was made to kill the 14-year-old Dalit girl and hide the crime, according to reports of gang-rape by two males who took turns attacking her and hitting her with bricks. Late Saturday night, in the Bakshi Ka Talab neighbourhood, the horrifying occurrence occurred. The following day, a FIR was filed.
The second attacker’s identity is still being investigated, although one of the suspects has been identified by police as coming from the same hamlet.
The girl was attacked by the two males when they came upon her at the Asti crossing at 8 p.m. They started following her, and the police complaint states that they dragged her into the bushes and alternated between raping her when they discovered her on a lonely stretch. The victim further claimed that during the attack, they made derogatory remarks based on caste.
The girl narrated, “They hit my face with a brick intending to kill me.” “They repeatedly hit my back and other body parts, leading me to believe I was dead.”
The youngster was severely hurt, but she was able to regain consciousness soon after the incident and make it home, where she told her family. Her statement will be recorded before a magistrate, and police are waiting. While the inquiry is ongoing, one of the suspects has been placed under arrest for questioning. According to DCP North Zone Abhijit Shankar, a formal complaint has been filed under the SC/ST Act for gang rape and other offences.
