A 32-year-old woman was allegedly gang-raped in UP’s Budaun district about five months ago but the incident came to light after the video of the incident went viral on social media recently.

As per a report by The New Indian Express, the victim has lodged a complaint with the police on Thursday on the basis of which the six accused, including 5 minors, were taken into custody by the police.

In the complaint, the woman has stated that about five months ago she had gone to the jungles to collect wood when five youths gang-raped her while the sixth one made a video of the incident, police said.
