The committee has annexed their interview in the report in which the children, whose names have been withheld, claimed that they saw police personnel of a Police Control Room van taking a girl from a red light in their van and raping her in a nearby jungle.

The report had also withheld where the alleged incident took place.

According to the interview, one of the kids was witness to kidnapping and rape of a girl by three police men.

The child claimed that he saw the police men sitting in a PCR van speaking to a girl dressed in a blue jeans and yellow t-shirt and asked her to sit in it.

They took her deep inside a jungle where they raped her one by one and left her there, as the child with one of his friends witnessed it in horror while hiding.

They also claimed that police personnel target women labourers and construction workers.
