A 15-year-old girl was allegedly gang-raped by four people, including a private builder, in Southeast Delhi's Jamia Nagar area, police said on Monday. The builder is a resident of Saheen Bagh. The accused, a married man having four children, had allegedly raped the victim for over a period of six months in his flat.

VICTIM THREATENED

The victim is a student of Class 9 in a government school. She first met the builder through her classmate, who is a common friend, police said. "The accused had made her MMS and then started blackmailing her. He also threatened to upload it on the social media sites. He raped the victim in various flats located in South Delhi," a senior police officer said.

"The victim is three months pregnant. The victim had narrated the ordeal to her mother who then approached the police through a private NGO. The police registered a case of rape against the accused persons only after local residents and NGO workers intervened into the matter. The police are investigating the case and have recorded the statement of the victim. "We are looking for the absconding accused," the police officer added.
