2 Minor Girls Abducted, Gang Raped in Rajasthan

Two sisters - aged 13 and 15 - who went missing from their home in Rajasthan's Baran, have accused two 17-year-olds of gang rape. Medical examination, however, has not supported their allegation, the police said. The girls, who went missing on September 18, were recovered from Kota on September 23. The rape claim came eight days after the girls made a statement to the magistrate -- their statement was recorded on September 23 -- where they did not mention any sexual attack or the presence of any boys. But they changed their statement after they were allowed to go home and meet their parents, the police said.
