Highly Decomposed Body, Attacked by Dogs: How Delhi Teen's Gangrape and Murder Came to Light
Police said CCTV footage and a night-long search led to four apprehensions as investigators recovered knives and awaited forensic reports.
On Wednesday, Outer North Delhi Police apprehended four individuals—two aged 17, one 16, and one 19—allegedly involved in the gangrape and murder of a 16-year-old girl.
The incident occurred on the night of September 10 when the victim met her 17-year-old friend, who allegedly called three others to join them before the group sexually assaulted her.
Investigators traced a tempo using footage from over 50 CCTV cameras near the crime scene, prompting authorities to lodge an FIR under sections 103, 238, 65, and 3 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita , plus Section 6 of the POCSO Act.
When the girl threatened to file a complaint, the accused allegedly stabbed her to death and dumped her body near bushes; her decomposed remains were discovered on the night of September 12-13.
Police are awaiting medical and forensic reports to verify claims, with one suspect denying involvement; further investigation is underway to establish the sequence of events and individual roles.
