Earlier this month, the girl had run away from her home and come to Delhi. At Kashmiri Gate ISBT in Delhi, she had asked a driver of the Uttarakhand Roadways about the bus that will take her to Patiala but the driver misled her and made her board a Dehradun-bound bus.
The Uttarakhand Roadways bus arrived at Dehradun ISBT on the intervening night of August 12 and 13. After dropping all the passengers, the driver parked the bus at the parking lot. Then, the driver and conductor along with two other drivers and the cashier allegedly raped the girl inside a bus.
The security guard noticed her roaming alone at the bus depot and immediately informed the Child Welfare Committee. Following which, a team of the Child Welfare Committee took her with them to Nari Niketan. The victim did not tell anything to the team for the first two days, but on the third day when she was being counselled, she narrated the entire incident.
After this, the police registered a case on the basis of the victim's statement at the ISBT police post and the five accused were arrested. On August 22, her statement was recorded before the magistrate, where she told that she was raped in Moradabad before. Thereafter, Dehradun Police registered a zero FIR and transferred the case to Moradabad.
