Thrissur: One person has been arrested over the gang-rape of a teenage girl allegedly by her father's friends at Punnayurkulam in Thrissur district.
The accused, Kapparikkadu-native Shaji (26) has been remanded and the search is on for two others. Police suspect the accused are part of a narcotics mafia.
The alleged crime happened two months ago, but it came to light now after the girl opened up to her teacher a few days ago and the latter alerted the police.
