16-year-old girl gang-raped inside moving bus during 47-km ride to Delhi

In a harrowing incident on August 4, a 16-year-old student from Uttar Pradesh was allegedly gang-raped inside a moving sleeper bus during a 47-kilometer journey to Delhi. The teenager, who had left her home following a family disagreement, was stranded in heavy rain when she boarded an empty bus near Pari Chowk. The bus driver, Kuldeep, and conductor, Sandeep, claimed the bus was headed to Noida Sector 63 after stopping to pick her up.

Soon after departure, the conductor allegedly began making obscene advances towards the student. As the bus traveled approximately 30 kilometers towards Kashmere Gate, the conductor is said to have raped the girl while the driver threatened to kill her if she resisted. The teenager eventually approached police at Kashmere Gate, leading to the arrest of Kuldeep and Sandeep from a bus parking area in Timarpur. Forensic examination of the bus is currently underway.
