A minor girl escaped from the clutches of four men who allegedly attempted to rape her after kidnapping her in lower Assam's Goalpara district, police said Monday.

A man along with three of his friends had abducted the 15-year-old girl when she was on her way for tuition classes at Kampor Bazara area and taken her to a forest area where they attempted to rape her on September 20, the police said.

The girl, however, fought her attackers and escaped from their clutch, police said.

The girl's family filed an FIR about the attempted rape at Mornoi police station, they said.

The four accused persons were apprehended Sunday night, police said.

The girl was admitted to Goalpara Civil Hospital for treatment, they added.
