Hyderabad: A 14-year-old girl, reportedly of unsound mind, was allegedly raped by four of her neighbours in Telangana's Medchal–Malkajgiri district.
The girl had left her house on Monday after a petty quarrel with her parents, who sought police help after a search for her proved in vain, a police official said.
During the investigation, the teenager was traced and she revealed that she went out of her house and while roaming, the four-member gang allegedly raped and abandoned her, he said.
The girl was sent for a medical examination, the police official said adding they have taken the four suspects into custody for questioning.
In another case, an eight-year-old girl was allegedly sexually abused by a 14-year-old boy who lured her to his house here on Tuesday on the pretext of watching the cartoon on TV, police said.
The girl later informed the matter to her mother, who filed a complaint following which a case under relevant provisions of the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act was registered, they said.
