New Delhi: A 17-year-old girl was allegedly gang-raped by her friend and a security guard inside a private school in east Delhi’s Jagatpuri area, police said on Tuesday.
The police have arrested both the accused and charged them under various sections of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) and the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act.
In her complaint, the girl told police that her friend took her to the school on the pretext of a job on Monday.
They went to an office room inside the school where her friend, who is a scrap dealer, and the private school's security guard raped her, a senior police official said.
The prime accused, who was known to the girl for at least a year, met the girl at a local market on Monday and told her that he had set an appointment with someone at the private school.
The accused fled the spot after the incident. The girl went back home and narrated her ordeal to her mother and the matter was later reported to the police, the official said.
