Three boys held for sexual assault on minor girl with disabilities near Coimbatore
The Coimbatore District Police have arrested three minor boys on the charge of sexually assaulting a minor girl with dsaibilities near Thondamuthur.
The police said that the 16-year-old girl from Assam, who is hearing and speech-impaired, was sexually assaulted by the boys.
According to the police, the girl resided near Thondamuthur with her mother. On March 31, she stepped out to a shop after informing her mother, but returned home late in the evening. When her mother asked her why she was late, the girl communicated that a boy took her to a deserted spot on a two-wheeler and sexually assaulted her. Her mother lodged a complaint with the All Women Police Station, Perur, on Wednesday.
The police investigation, with the aid of a sign language expert, revealed that two more boys, also minors, had sexually assaulted her.
The three minors were arrested late on Thursday and they were sent to the Observation Home for Juveniles in the city.
