A shocking incident of sexual assault on a ten-year-old boy by three individuals, including two minors, has come to light in a secluded area of Chunabhatti. While the two minor accused have been sent to the Dongri Children's Home, an 18-year-old youth has been arrested in connection with the case. A First Information Report (FIR) has been registered against the accused under sections related to kidnapping and the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act.
