The victim’s mother lodged a complaint about the incident on Friday at Jhumpura police station, police said on Saturday.

According to the complaint, the girl had gone to a market in Jhumpura around 4 pm on Friday to sell lemons. While she was returning home, she was picked by two youths on a bike.
