3 arrested, minor detained for gangrape in MP's Anuppur
Three persons were arrested and a minor detained for allegedly gangraping a 20-year-old collegian in Anuppur district in Madhya Pradesh, a police official said on Sunday.
The incident took place when she was returning from college and walking towards her home at 6pm on Saturday after alighting from an auto rickshaw, Rajendragram police station in-charge Virendra Kumar said.
"The accused Hemraj Singh (23) stopped her enroute, and his three associates pulled her behind the trees nearby, after which all four gangraped her. On her complaint, we arrested Hemraj Singh, Nepal Singh (20) and Jitendra Singh (25) and detained the fourth accused — who is a minor," he said.
They have been charged under Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita for gangrape, abduction and criminal intimidation, the official added.
