Two school staff members of Gohana Sonepat district were booked on Sunday after an anonymous letter purportedly by a girl student alleged that she was raped on campus, police said.
Police has taken letter which was circulating on WhatsApp and alleged victim.
The girl or her family members have not come forward so far to lodge a formal complaint, Sonepat SP Satender Kumar Gupta told PTI over the phone.
“We immediately took cognizance of the anonymous letter and registered an FIR under section 376D (gang rape) of the IPC. Further investigations are being conducted,” Gupta said.
SHO and sub-inspector Kuldeep Police Station Gohana said the alleged victim had in the letter mentioned herself as a student and added that she had forwarded copies of the complaint to the Prime Minister’s Office, Haryana chief minister, state DGP, Sonipat SP, Gohana police and two newspapers.
“We found the letter being circulated over WhatsApp and immediately took cognisance,” the SHO said. The two staff members named in the letter were booked under the FIR registered in connection with the case, the SHO said.
While the letter names the two staff members as accused, it does not reveal who the victim is, which class she studies in or her age, the police said.
“However, the victim claims that she was sexually assaulted by the accused in the office room, but no date of the assault is mentioned. We found that a CCTV camera was installed not just outside the office of the two staff members, but inside their room as well.
Accused have not been arrested because investigations are still under we cannot say yet whether anyone has tried to create mischief by posting this anonymous letter will become clear only after the investigations.
