India Today
Three people in Gujarat were charged with gang rape within 24 hours of their arrest.
A 15-year-old Bhavnagar girl was allegedly gang-raped by three people in a car on the Bhavnagar-Alang highway, and all three accused have been arrested.
The police filed the chargesheet against the three in 'record' 24 hours after they were handed over to court custody.
The incident occurred late on Friday night, around 10 pm, when one of the accused, Mansukh Solanki (35), the victim's neighbour and acquaintance, noticed her standing alone outside her house.
Solanki, who was accompanied by his friend Sanjay Makwana (25), enticed her to join him for a short drive in the former's car, to which she agreed.
Meanwhile, the duo also called their friend Mustafa Sheikh (35).
The trio then drove the car beneath an under-construction bridge near Trapaj village and took the girl onto the highway near Alang, where the three of them took turns raping the girl.
Sheikh fled the scene after committing the crime, while Solanki and Makwana took the girl into the car and drove to Bhavnagar.
