JAIPUR: Five days after a 17-year-old gangrape victim committed suicide in Bharatpur, police on Friday arrested two persons in this connection and detained a juvenile. The girl’s father had lodged a named FIR against two persons but the investigation suggested involvement of a minor boy and he too was detained.
On January 10, the girl drank poison after videos of the crime went viral. The girl took the extreme step when her father had gone to talk to the accused in this matter.
“The girl initially kept mum after the rape. However, when her father came to know about the incident through the viral videos of the incident, she narrated her plight before him on January 10," said a senior police officer of Kaithwara police station.
(The victim's identity has not been revealed to protect her privacy as per Supreme court directives on cases related to sexual assault)
