BAREILY: A 14-year-old girl from Bareilly was allegedly gang raped by two teenagers at knifepoint, while a neighbour filmed the assault instead of trying to save the girl and later shared the video on social media, report Kanwardeep Singh & Asif Ansari. After the clip began circulating, the survivor's father lodged a police complaint.
However, instead of slapping rape charges, police registered FIR under BNS section 75 (sexual harassment). It was only after the father, a burqa shop owner, filed a complaint on UP CM's grievance portal on Saturday that the SSP ordered the addition of rape section and relevant sections of Pocso Act and directed a medical examination, following which the girl's statement was recorded on Monday. Additional SP Mukesh Mishra said the probe will be impartial.
