Barabanki, April 4 (SocialNews.XYZ) Two boys, aged 13 and 14, were detained for sexually assaulting an eight-year-old girl in Uttar Pradesh's Barabanki.

Police said the accused took the girl to mustard fields where they gang-raped her and then fled. The girl was found lying unconscious in the field and an FIR was lodged.
