Puri: Police framed a charge-sheet against six persons on Tuesday for allegedly raping a minor girl here on December 2. The prime accused, Jitendra Sethi, is a dismissed constable.

The girl later managed to escape and informed locals.

Police started an investigation and arrested the prime accused. The other accused were arrested later.
