The girl went into shock after the incident, but narrated her ordeal to her mother after some days through sign language
A 13-year-old hearing and speech-impaired girl was allegedly raped by six persons, including four minors, at a village in Shahdol district of Madhya Pradesh, police said on Thursday.
The incident occurred on September 25 and the accused were caught after the victim's mother lodged a complaint on Thursday, Shahdol zone's additional director general (ADG) of police Dinesh Chandra Sagar told PTI.
As per the complaint, a man who knew the minor lured her to a room in the village and sexually assaulted her. Other accused, who were present there, took turns to rape her, he said, adding that the victim and the accused lived in the same village.

Former CM B.S. Yediyurappa had challenged the first information report registered on March 14, 2024, on the alleged incident that occurred on February 2, 2024, the chargesheet filed by the Criminal Investigation Department (CID), and the February 28, 2025, order of taking cognisance of offences afresh by the trial court.
