Mumbai: Another horrifying incident came across Mumbai where a teenage girl was raped, filmed and the video was spread over WhatsApp. A teenage girl was allegedly gangraped by her friend and three other boys. The crime came into light after her aunt came across the video of the incident that they had circulated on WhatsApp.
All the four accused who are minors have been taken into custody DCP Dhananjay Kulkarni said. The four boys, studying in classes 9 and 10, allegedly gangraped the 15-year-old girl on November 8 and made a video of the crime.
The boys threatened the girl not to reveal the incident or else they would post the video online, Malad police station’s senior inspector Shashank Sandbhor said.
The girl was accused by one of her friend. She had gone for studies at his home in suburban Malad, where he and three of his accomplices allegedly gang-raped her, he said.
The accused later posted the video of the incident on the internet and some social networking sites, police said. The video later went viral on mobile messaging application WhatsApp and caught the attention of the victim’s aunt, who then informed her parents.
“We took the four boys into custody yesterday and have sent them to Dongri remand home,” Sandbhor said.
