Ghaziabad: Four boys, the youngest 14 and the oldest 17, have been named in an FIR for allegedly raping a 14-year-old girl at her flat in a housing society in Kavi Nagar.
The alleged sexual assault happened while the girl, a Class IX student at a private school, was alone at home on Sunday morning.
Sources said two of the accused are from the same school as her – one in her class, the other in class X.
The two others are Class XI students who study elsewhere.
The FIR mentions the name of only one of the four – one Class XI student. It was filed at Kavi Nagar police station under Section 70(2) (gang rape) of BNS and sections of Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act around 11.30pm on Sunday night after the girl's father filed a complaint.

According to the FIR, around 11.30am on Sunday morning, the girl received a call from the Class XI student named in the FIR. They knew each other and were connected on social media, though they don't study in the same school. Over the call, he informed her that he was coming to meet her – the girl's father alleged he had been insisting for two days on coming and meeting her.
On Sunday morning, when he landed up, she was alone at home – the father was out for work and her mother had gone to a market.

"During that time, the doorbell rang, and when she opened the door, she saw the prime accused and three other boys," according to the FIR.
"These four boys forcibly took her inside a room, covered her mouth and threw her on the bed. They held her hands and feet, and each of the four boys took turns assaulting her. When the complainant's wife returned from the market, she found the flat door open and saw the four boys with her daughter.
She locked them inside and raised an alarm. She also called her husband," the FIR adds.
The girl's father told TOI on Tuesday that he immediately called police at 112 when his wife told him what had happened. "When some residents of the society came to our house and were talking to my wife about the incident, the boys managed to flee," he said, accusing police of not reacting quickly enough to detain the boy at the spot.
"The boys were harassing my daughter for a long time on social media platforms.
Whenever she refused to talk, they threatened her," he said.
Bhaskar Verma, ACP of Kavi Nagar, said a police team had been formed to investigate and CCTV footage of the society was also being examined. "We sent the girl for a medical examination. The report is awaited. Her magistrate statement will be recorded soon," he said.
Sources said the main accused lives in the Wave City area. The manager of the school the girl studies in confirmed to TOI on Tuesday that she had taken admission only this year.
"As far as we know, her family recently shifted to Ghaziabad. However, the girl has not attended school since she took admission. We have the records."
Though the Class XI student named as accused and the girl did not study in the school together, he and her brother did. "The main accused and her brother were in our school till Class 10. Both did not continue in Class 11," the school manager said.

Mangaluru Court Sentences Man to 20 Years for Rape of Minor in Major POCSO Verdict

Mangaluru: In a landmark judgement under the POCSO Act, a 30-year-old man from Dakshina Kannada was sentenced on Tuesday to 20 years in prison by a Mangaluru court for raping a 16-year-old girl in May 2023 and threatening her with a video recording of the assault. The convict, Mansoor alias Mohammad Mansoor alias Zabeer, was also fined ₹50,000 for the rape and ₹5,000 for criminal intimidation, along with an additional one-year imprisonment. The case was registered at Mangaluru Women's Police Station on December 23, 2023, under IPC Sections 363, 376(2)(n), 376(3), 506, and POCSO Section 6. Police said Mansoor remained absconding for nearly eight months before being arrested on July 2 this year. A detailed charge sheet was filed after Inspector Gururaj and his successor Rajendra B. conducted a thorough investigation, gathering key digital and testimonial evidence. The Fast Track Special Court (FTSC-2), presided over by Judge Manu K.S., delivered the judgement after hearing arguments by Special Public Prosecutor Sahanadevi Boluru and Government Advocate Badrinath. The verdict has been welcomed by child rights advocates and police officials as a message of zero tolerance towards crimes against children. 'This case reaffirms our commitment to protect minors and deliver swift justice,' said the Mangaluru Police Commissioner, adding that coordination between investigating officers and prosecutors was crucial to the outcome.

Kejriwal lauds 'honest' AAP regime, says previous governments 'ruined' Punjab

Arvind Kejriwal (PTI image) Accusing the previous governments of "ruining" Punjab, Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) national convener Arvind Kejriwal on Thursday said an "honest" regime led by Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann is on the contrary working for the welfare of people. He lauded his party's government for acting tough against drug smugglers and bringing an "education revolution" in the state. Kejriwal was addressing a gathering on the occasion of the martyrdom day of legendary freedom fighter Udham Singh. The AAP chief earlier along with Mann paid tributes at the Shaheed Udham Singh memorial here. Kejriwal also blamed the previous governments for the problem of drug menace in the state. Taking potshots at the Congress, Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) and BJP, he alleged, "The way their (previous) governments destroyed Punjab, government schools and hospitals, there was corruption everywhere, they looted money." "Punjab's situation has started improving in the last three years," said Kejriwal while referring to the AAP government's tenure in the state. On the state government's anti-drug drive, Kejriwal said the drug smugglers are being arrested and put behind bars. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Brother Donates Kidney To Save Sister's Life. One Year Later, He Says, I Wish I Never Did It, When This Happens Daily Sport X Undo The backbone of drug supply networks has been broken and the manner in which this anti-drug campaign has been launched finds no parallel in contemporary Indian history, he added. Without naming anyone, the AAP chief said the most notorious and feared drug lord has been put behind bars by the state government. Kejriwal further said exemplary action will be taken against such people, who ruined the future of our coming generations, adding none of them will be spared for such heinous crimes. The former Delhi chief minister said Punjab has seen "revolutionary" changes in every sector under the AAP regime. "Today, an education revolution is going on in Punjab. Good results (of government schools) are coming. The children of poor families are now joining IITs and they are becoming engineers, doctors and advocates. People of Punjab never expected such a government," he added. Asserting canal water is now reaching the tail end of villages, the AAP national convener said, "During previous governments, farmers had to wake up in the night to switch on their motors (to irrigate their crops)." "But today, farmers are getting eight hours of electricity supply during the day time and it is happening for the first time," he added. Kejriwal said the work on construction of 20,000 km of rural roads in the state will start from September. Escalating his attack on the previous governments, Kejriwal said that they used to claim lack of funds for carrying out development works. "We never said there are no funds. It is the same money, same budget, same officers but those who run the governments have changed. It is the AAP government, which is an honest government. We are doing all your works," he added. Addressing the gathering after laying the foundation stone of projects worth around Rs 85 crore to give facelift to Shaheed Udham Singh Wala town, the AAP leader said that the legendary freedom fighter made a supreme sacrifice for the sake of the country's freedom. India's freedom struggle saw countless sacrifices for the sake of the country to carve out an egalitarian society to ensure welfare of the weaker and underprivileged sections, he added. Kejriwal, however, said it is unfortunate that even after 75 years of freedom none of their aspirations have been fulfilled as those in power misused their authority to plunder wealth. Speaking at the event, Mann said it is the state government's duty to pay tributes to such legendary martyrs, who laid down their lives for the sake of the country. The chief minister said that naming airports, universities and other institutions in the name of these iconic martyrs is important to perpetuate their glorious legacy. Mann said the AAP is making tireless efforts to realize the dreams of the legendary martyrs, adding it is a matter of immense pride and satisfaction that this government is making concerted efforts in this regard. The state government has been making efforts to ensure comprehensive development of the state and prosperity of its people, he added. The chief minister also spoke about the 'Mukh Mantri Sehat Yojna', which will provide cashless medical treatment up to Rs 10 lakh for every resident family in Punjab. Punjab is the first state in the country to offer such comprehensive healthcare coverage, which will significantly ease the financial burden on the public while ensuring quality health services. He said that 55,000 government jobs have been given so far to the state's youth, Aam Aadmi clinics have been opened to impart quality health services to people, schools have been renovated across the state and canal water is reaching the tail end to benefit farmers.
