    What's the story

    A 45-year-old woman was allegedly gang-raped on Monday while she had gone to take a dip in Ganga in Patna district, Bihar, police said.

    The accused recorded the crime which was then shared on social media.

    The two men, including the one who filmed the incident, have been arrested by Barh police, reports confirmed.

    Here's more on this.

    The incident

    Woman pleaded men to remember Ganga's 'sanctity', they didn't listen

    The video purportedly shows the woman being dragged out of the river and raped.

    She pleaded the men to stop and asked them to remember the 'sanctity' of the river, whom she considered as 'mother'. But the men didn't budge and took turns to rape her.

    The video went viral late on Tuesday evening, after which the police swung to action.

    Locals claimed when the women approached the police, they refused to lodge a complaint.
