Jagatsinghpur: A disturbing incident has come to light from Odhisha's Jagatsinghpur. Here, two brothers allegedly gang-raped a 15-year-old girl, impregnated her and then attempted to bury her alive, according to NDTV.

The police have arrested the two accused brothers, identified as Bhagyadhar Das and Panchanan Das from Banashbara village, while a third accused, Tulu, is on the run. Police have launched a manhunt to nab him.
