Ludhiana, July 30

The Ludhiana police have booked two brothers for gang-raping their minor sister for several months at their residence in Guru Gobind Singh Nagar.

Harjit Kaur, a teacher at a school on the Barota road, told the police that the 15-year-old girl was her student. Her brothers also study in the same school.

“On July 27, the girl came to me and started crying. When I asked her the reason, she revealed that her two brothers had been raping her for months at home during the lockdown. She could not garner courage to reveal about the exploitation to her family,” the teacher revealed.

Investigation officer SI Jaspreet Kaur of Shimlapuri Police Station said a case of gangrape under Section 376-D of the IPC and under Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act had been registered against the accused and raids were being conducted to nab them.
