Bhubaneswar, Feb 11: In a disturbing and deeply troubling incident, a young minor girl was reportedly gang-raped by four youths on Saturday night in the Laxmipur area of Koraput district.

This harrowing event came to light only after the victim bravely lodged a complaint at the Laxmipur Police Station on Sunday.
Upon receiving the complaint, the Koraput Superintendent of Police (SP) promptly directed the Laxmipur Police to carry out a thorough and serious investigation.
