Gang Rape | Hyderabad, April 25 (Maxim News): A crucial development has taken place in the case of gang rape in Jubilee Hills of the city of Hyderabad. The High Court has struck down the verdict given by the POCSO court earlier that the minor boy who is the sixth accused should be treated as a major.

About 10 months ago, a gang rape took place at Amnesia Pub in Jubilee Hills. Police have arrested six people in this case. Among them, the minors are accused along with the main accused Salauddin. The police filed a petition in the court, seeking to treat four of the five minors as majors. In serious cases, minors were asked to be treated as majors.
