Eight men have been arrested in India after two girls, aged 14 and 15, were dragged into a forest and gang-raped for hours until they passed out.
The sad incident occurred on Monday, March 29 in Khowai, Tripura.
The victims, who were friends, had been out celebrating Holi, the Festival of Love with the group of men, aged between 19 and 22, who they knew from the local area.
After the festival celebration, the two girls failed to return home in the evening, the Times of India reports.
