Muzaffarnagar:
A seven-year-old girl was allegedly gang-raped by three men in Muzaffaranagar in western Uttar Pradesh on Sunday.
According to the girl's family, she was playing in the fields when she was picked up by a boy who was joined by his friends and they took turns to rape her.
"The incident happened between 8-9 am. Her condition is critical," said the girl's uncle.
She was found abandoned in the field by locals. The family alleges that instead of acting swiftly, the police delayed her admission into a hospital by nearly ten hours.
The girl is now being treated at the district hospital.
The cops have arrested one of the accused, while two others are on the run.
