A 17-year-old girl was allegedly raped at gunpoint by two youths in Budpura village, police said today.
The FIR filed by the minor girl's father states that in the incident which occurred on March 2, two village youths, Subedar and Nandoo, forcibly dragged his daughter to a secluded spot where they took turns to rape her after gagging her and holding her at gunpoint. The duo are absconding.
Police said that the victim was found in an unconscious state close to where she was raped.
In another incident which has come to light in the area involves a young girl who was allegedly kidnapped six years ago from Sahawar area and held captive in Ballabhgarh area of the district where the accused, one Chandravan, repeatedly raped her.
The girl, who has given birth to a baby girl, however, managed to escape from her captor and returned to her parents.
With the abductor allegedly looking to carry her off again, the parents of the girl lodged an FIR against him, police said, adding that no arrests had been made in the case so far.
In a third case of attempted rape, reported in the district on March 4, a woman was attacked inside her house by a youth who, however, was forced to flee as the victim raised alarm seeking help.
