BHOPAL: A 17-year-old girl was allegedly gang-raped by six men in Madhya Pradesh's Shahdol town for two days, following which she was taken to a hotel by a deputy jailer, where police rescued her Thursday. All six suspected rapists were arrested. The deputy jailer, Vikas Singh , posted at Budhar sub-jail in Shahdol, faces charges of abducting a minor. The crime came a day after a class 7 girl was repeatedly gang-raped by two men for three days while being held captive in a house in Mandla .
The survivor went missing on April 28 night, but it wasn't until two days later that her family approached Sohagpur PS in Shahdol, 535km from Bhopal. Cops began looking for her and found her in a hotel in town the next day. By Thursday evening, Sohagpur Police had arrested four suspects. Later that night, two more accused were caught.
"According to the minor's statement, recorded in court on Friday, one of the accused had called her to a secluded place on April 29, where he and two others raped her. The next day, another accused called her to some other secluded place, where he and two others raped her," Sohagpur PS in-charge Bhupendra Mandi Pandey told TOI.
According to the survivor's statement, she was walking towards Shahdol railway station on April 30 night when she was offered a lift by Singh. He allegedly took her to a hotel, where police found her on May 1. The deputy jailer was engaged at the same hotel the previous day, and his relatives were still staying there when the girl was allegedly brought to the property.
