The Pune police on Wednesday booked four minors, including a girl, for allegedly sexually abusing their 13-year-old female friend and detained two of them, a police officer said. Police said the minors and the teenager are mutual friends and the girl was subjected to sexual abuse by the juveniles twice.


“In the first incident, one of the male juveniles, despite knowing that the victim was minor, allegedly established forceful relations,” said a police officer. In the second incident, the accused girl took her female friend to the house of one of the boys where a second minor allegedly sexually abused her, while the third juvenile recorded the assault on his phone, the officer said.


The Police on Wednesday registered a case under Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhitasections 376 (rape) and 363 (kidnapping) and under the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act, he said. Two of the three accused boys were detained and produced before the Juvenile Justice Board, he added.
