Puri: A day after the gang rape of a minor girl in a police quarter here, police on Tuesday said that a charge-sheet will be framed against the accused within 20 days.
Briefing mediapersons here, DIG (Central Range) Ashish Singh said police have arrested the prime accused, Jitendra Kumar Sethi, and his associate, Rajesh Sethi. They will be forwarded to court after interrogation.
The DIG said police have taken it up as a special case. Four teams have been formed for a detailed investigation as well as to trace the two other accused.
