Amid massive outrage, the police have detained the fourth accused in the Hyderabad gang rape case, who is a minor, officials said on Sunday.

The fifth accused – an adult – is yet to be arrested, they said. A 17-year-old schoolgirl was allegedly gang-raped in the Jubilee Hills area of the Telangana capital after she went to a party organised by her classmates on May 28. A total of five accused have been booked so far.

Telangana governor Dr Tamilisai Soundararajan has sought a report from the police on the matter. “Deeply anguished over this heinous incident, the Hon’ble Governor has ordered for the submission of a detailed report within two (2) days on the issue from the Chief Secretary and the Director General of Police,” an official statement read.
