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.
Puri SP Uma Shankar Das said police framed the charge-sheet in 20 days after the incident. “We have requested for the case to be tried in a fast-track court,” he added.

The girl later managed to escape and informed locals.
Police started an investigation and arrested the prime accused. The other accused were arrested later.
