A girl from Laxipur village of Sarlahi district has been gang-raped while she was out of home for a while to answer nature's call. The 18-year-old who stepped out of her house at 8 pm on Sunday was reportedly raped by Ajay Karmi, 25 and Saroj Raut, 20. According to police inspector Ramesh Khadka, the duo is already in police custody. Both the men are the victim's neighbors.
