A 17-year-old girl who had been to her maternal uncle's house in Bharuch for a wedding was allegedly gang-raped by two teenage boys in the neighbourhood, who filmed their dastardly act. The girl's family filed a complaint on knowing about the incident. The police have detained the two boys found in the video. 

The girl had arrived with other members of the family for the marriage at her uncle's society in Bharuch's Link Road and was put up in one of the neighbouring houses. Finding the girl alone at the house, two next door boys aged 15 and 14 years on the pretext of drinking water came to her place.

The 15-year-old then proceeded to sexually assault the 17-year-old, while the 14-year-old filmed it. Thereafter the younger one forced himself on the girl, while the 15-year-old filmed the despicable act. 

On February 4, when the girl had gone to buy some snacks from a nearby shop, the duo stopped her and took her to a construction site, where they brutalised her again through their unnatural act and filmed it again. Shocked by the turn of events, the girl avoided telling her family about it. 

The heinous crime came to the family's attention when the two culprits shared the video with another friend, who subsequently reached out to the survivor's father.

A complaint was then registered with the Bharuch A Division police against both the boys under the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences Act (POCSO), Prevention of Atrocities Act, and Cyber Act.
