The single soldier held responsible for gang-raping a student to be arraigned in court today
DPA News earlier reported on the case of one soldier being fired from the Army for being among the soldiers that raped a female student at a military checkpoint.
It was reported as a gang rape. Eye witnesses reported that the lady passenger of a public bus was ordered down from the vehicle by a group of soldiers for no reason except that she was a neat and good looking girl.
The victim reported that after the bus was ordered to leave without her, the soldiers took her to a booth at the checkpoint and took turns to rape her.
The Army investigated the matter after it appeared on social media. The Army fired only one of the officers, presumably the one that ordered her down from the vehicle.
What happened to the other soldiers that participated in the rape? That question remains unanswered.
After being fired, the single soldier was handed over to the police, and he will be arraigned in court today for rape.
