Patna, Dec 17 (TheBiharPost/IBNS): An engineering girl student was burnt to death on Friday after being allegedly gang-raped in eastern Indian state of Jharkhand.

The victim was pursuing Bachelor of Technology from the RTC Institute of Technology, Ormanji, Ranchi.

The incident came to light after the girl’s father on failing to contact her over phone sent some neighbours to check her.

Reports said on reaching her room at Booty village, they found her lying on the ground in semi nude condition and her body up in flames.

By the time, they doused the flames, she was already dead.

Police believe she may have been gang-raped before being set on fire.

“Several injury marks on her body indicate she may have been gang-raped before being burnt,” a police official was quoted as saying in a local media today.

The police have seized her cell phone and clothes and also collected the blood samples from the spot.

“We registered an FIR under section 302 (murder), 376 (punishment for rape) and other relevant sections of the IPC,” a senior police official Vikash Chandra Srivastava was quoted as saying in the local media.

The victim who was the youngest among her four sisters was a native of Barkakana in Jharkhand.
