The bodies of two girls - a 16-year-old and a 14-year-old - were found hanging from a tree in a village in the Kotwali area of Uttar Pradesh's Kanpur district late Wednesday. They were allegedly forced to drink liquor and then sexually assaulted by the 18-year-old son and 19-year-old nephew of a local contractor. The bodies have been sent for post-mortem and accused, including the contractor, have been arrested. They could face charges of gang rape and abetment of suicide, as well as those under the POCSO Act, the police said.
