Last Updated:
17 people have been arrested in connection to the crime, along with one minor, and an investigation into the matter is currently underway.
A 15-year-old girl in Andhra Pradesh was admitted to the hospital after she got pregnant after allegedly being raped by 14 men over two years.
The girl was first sexually assaulted in Class 8 and endured ongoing abuse until two months ago, when she was in Class 10, all while continuing to attend school, reported the Indian Express, citing District Superintendent of Police V Ratna.
The girl, who lives with her mother, was not only assaulted but was also threatened and blackmailed by the accused. Reportedly, she belongs to the minority community.
'It was her young age, vulnerability, and caste because of which the men could prey on and exploit her for two years, leaving her pregnant at 15. The systems that are in place to check on her welfare failed. Her class teacher did not even report that she had dropped out of school,'' Superintendent of Police V Ratna told The Indian Express.
The police have arrested 17 in connection to the crime, along with one minor, and an investigation into the matter is currently underway.
A similar incident took place in September 2024 when a 13-year-old girl became pregnant allegedly after she was raped by a government school peon in Uttar Pradesh's Farrukhabad.
'The family of the 13-year-old girl has lodged a case against the accused men. The girl had gone to defecate at night when Pankaj and Amit of the village caught her and took her to an empty house where Amit raped her while Pankaj stood outside and kept a watch," a police official had said, citing the complaint.
'The accused raped her by stuffing a cloth in her mouth. After this, the girl was threatened that if she complained, they would kill her. But when the girl became five months pregnant, her mother came to know about the matter. After which the mother approached the local police," the official had stated.

Iran arrests German national, accuses him of 'espionage' in nuclear and military facility areas

Iran has accused and arrested a German national for espionage on its nuclear and military facilities inside the country, according to state TV Channel Two. Iran branded the man as a dual German national as well as a spy. The German national was arrested in the Markazi Province, according to reports, with officials alleging he had "dozens of instances of espionage and/or sabotage". According to a BBC report, the accused had entered the country disguised as a tourist, but has been spotted frequently filming sensitive areas across the country, some of which even include military and nuclear facilities in Iran. This marks an increase in the number of arrests made in the country, amid the ongoing Israel-Iran conflict. A BBC report on this reads, "An unspecified number of people in several provinces, including Markazi, Isfahan and Tehran, have been detained on related charges since Israel's attacks on Iran started."
