Vulnerable and scared over the entire incident, the minor then committed suicide by hanging herself.
Though Nuh police has officially filed a rape case, no arrests have been made yet.
The Haryana government has taken a big step towards curing heinous crimes against women.
In a major decision, the state government recently decided that rapists who assault minors of below 12 years of age will be awarded with life imprisonment or even death penalty.
The government has also put stricter retribution for molestation where the convicted culprit can serve up to two years in prison from one year initially.
