Teenage girls kidnapped and gang-raped in capital; Delayed justice demands accountability

In the heart of the capital, a young girl was kidnapped and subjected to a brutal gang rape. The ordeal began on May 1 when the girl, who innocently got out to buy milk, was lured away by a woman in a black car. What followed was a nightmarish series of events that unfolded in a house where she was held captive and attacked by multiple perpetrators.

The seriousness of the situation was exacerbated by the authorities’ delayed response. Despite the mother’s frantic search and subsequent police complaint, it took four days to register a case, raising serious questions about the efficiency and sensitivity of law enforcement agencies in dealing with such heinous crimes.

The community’s outrage was palpable as details of the young girl’s traumatic experience emerged. The police’s negligence in immediately addressing the situation has led to calls for accountability and swift action to ensure justice for the victim.
