The child’s decomposed body was found in a bush about 1 kilometre from her home in the Baramulla district of Indian-administered Kashmir, 12 days after she was reported her missing by her father.
Police confirmed the incidence, narrating how the unnamed 36-year-old woman took the deceased to a forested area where allegedly ordered her 14-year-old son and his two teenage friends, aged 14 and 19, to take turns in raping the child.
The stepmother is accused of then strangling the girl while her son hit the child on the head with an axe.
His friend brought vehicle battery acid from home and sprinkled it on the body while another friend gouged out her eyes before dumping the corpse in the bushes.
A 28-year-old man has also been arrested over the case.
A police statement issued read:
“Physical condition and preliminary forensic analysis of dead body substantiated all these facts."Local police Superintendent, Imtiyaz Hussain said the teenage offenders have confessed to the crime and separately corroborated the facts during questioning.
"They will be sent to a juvenile home and dealt with according to the state’s juvenile law."
