Maharashtra: Minor gang-raped at knifepoint

NAGPUR: Four persons, including dreaded goon Rohit Ramteke, were booked on Saturday for gang-raping a 16-year-old at knifepoint on May 4. The goons had picked up the girl — a student of standard XI — while she was on her way to a relative’s place, and dropped the survivor at her residence the following day.
Police said four persons, including Rohit, had whisked away the girl on two bikes and went to an apartment in the outskirts of the city. They had gang raped her for the whole night. She had earlier approached police but her complaint was registered after probing her version. Apart from Rohit, the others who have been booked are Akash, Saurabh and Chandu. An offence has been registered at Ajni police station.
Ramteke has been booked for cases of gang rape in the past too. He is now lodged in Nagpur Central Jail.
