A minor gang-rape complainant was allegedly slapped and kicked inside a police station in Saharanpur town on Monday, prompting her to cry out she would “never go to a police station again in this life”.
The alleged incident, its aftermath purportedly captured in a video, came four days after Prime Minister Narendra Modi had lauded chief minister Yogi Adityanath for protecting “sisters and daughters” in Uttar Pradesh.

The girl, who seemed hardly 16 and had come to the Kotwali police station with her mother, told reporters on Tuesday that two policewomen had thrashed her and warned her not to make the gang-rape allegation public.
