A schoolgirl was raped at Bagbar village in Purbadhala upazila early yesterday. Police said the girl, a student of class-VII, was asleep when a group of miscreants led by Ariful Haque entered their house by breaking door. The gang then took the girl to a nearby jungle and violated her. Local people later rescued the student and sent her to Mymensingh Medical College Hospital in a critical condition. A case was filed against six persons but police could not arrest anyone.
