New Delhi: Even before the shock waves generated by the brutal rape and murder of a young woman in Uttar Pradesh could calm down, a 13-year-old girl in Greater Noida has been allegedly raped by three persons. The accused were arrested, officials said.
The three accused and the girl belong to the same neighbourhood in Dadri and were known to each other, the police said.
Gautam Buddh Nagar Deputy Commissioner of Police (Women Safety) Vrinda Shukla said the incident had taken place on Tuesday and the girl’s mother approached the police on Thursday after which an FIR was lodged and the suspects detained.
Shukla added: “The girl was allegedly raped by the three persons who live in her neighbourhood, according to her mother. During the probe it emerged that the accused already knew the girl and they had asked a 12-year-old boy to call the girl to their house, where the incident took place.”
