Rape survivor has surgery to remove pin in her arm

Nagpur: The 16-year-old girl, who was gang-raped twice by half-a-dozen men in the early hours of July 30, underwent a minor surgery on her left forearm to remove a pin she had inserted into herself some time back. She is partially mentally disturbed.
In the meanwhile, the four persons arrested so far for their roles in the gang-rape, were produced before the court on Monday. The court sent them to police custody till August 5. All the four are autorickshaw drivers. Two autorickshaw drivers had taken her to the room of two railway coolies at Timki, where the four had raped her. Later, she was again raped by another two autorickshaw drivers in front of Indira Gandhi Government Medical College and Hospital (IGGMCH).
During investigation, the cops had noticed a swelling on the girl’s hand. Upon questioning, she had revealed about the pin which she had inserted into herself. The teenager was rushed to IGGMCH, where X-ray confirmed the pin in her forearm, following which the surgery was performed to remove it.
The case was handed over to ACP, Sitabuldi police station, Trupti Jadhav as investigation officer.
Police said two railway coolies, who were also involved in the case, have most probably sneaked away to Rajasthan, which is their native place. Police are also trying to nab yet another autorickshaw driver in this case.
