The Delhi Commission for Women said on Sunday that three of a young boy’s friends and neighbours in northeastern Delhi reportedly gang-raped him, beat him, and stuck a rod in his private region. On Thursday, four days after the event, the youngster who is presently in serious condition at the LNJP hospital told his parents about it.
Declaring the occurrence to be “a very serious matter”, the chief of the Delhi Commission for Women (DCW), Swati Maliwal, requested a copy of the FIR, data on the accused, and the report’s findings by no later than September 28.
In Delhi, let alone girls, even boys are not safe. A 12-year-old boy was brutally raped by four people and left in a half-dead condition after being beaten with sticks. Our team registered an FIR in the matter.

The victim knew the accused, who were all between the ages of 10 and 12, and were his friends and neighbours from the same neighbourhood, it was discovered during the inquiry. One of the defendants is allegedly also related to the minor via blood. Two additional minors who were detained in connection with the case are still at large, while one has already appeared before the Juvenile Justice Board.
An inquiry is ongoing after a case was lodged under IPC section 377/34 and POCSO Act section 6.
