Ranchi, Apr 13 (PTI) A 17-year-old girl was allegedly gang-raped on the outskirts of Ranchi, police said on Saturday.

In her complaint, the survivor said that she went to a fair with her friends on Friday night, and from there, she went to the house of an acquaintance.

Already some young men were present in that house, and they allegedly raped her, she told the police.

“The survivor said that she somehow managed to escape from the clutches of the youths and found a few villagers outside the house. She narrated her ordeal to them and they brought her to the police station,” said an officer of the Ratu police station.
