in Junagadh, where she was able to describe<br />
her ordeal with the help of an interpreter.<br />
The girl alleged that she had been gangraped<br />
by seven persons in Ahmedabad and<br />
14 in Mangrol over the span of a week.<br />
In her statement she said she had been<br />
sold by one of her relatives to an agent<br />
named Sai in Bangaon village of West Bengal<br />
