Dhanbad, June 12: A 14-year-old girl was allegedly raped by her underage lover and six of his friends in Jharkhand’s Dhanbad district within two days, a police official said on Wednesday. A complaint has been filed against seven people at Dhansar police station, around 160 km from state capital Ranchi, and raids are underway to nab the accused, he said.

Dhansar police station superintendent Manoj Pandey said that the accused not only raped the girl but one of them also filmed the crime on a mobile phone. “We found the mobile phone at the crime scene,” he said. According to the victim, her lover called her at home on Sunday evening and raped her along with a friend. The accused locked her in a room after committing the crime.
