Ghaziabad: Four boys, the youngest 14 and the oldest 17, have been named in an FIR for allegedly raping a 14-year-old girl at her flat in a housing society in Kavi Nagar.
The alleged sexual assault happened while the girl, a Class IX student at a private school, was alone at home on Sunday morning.
Sources said two of the accused are from the same school as her – one in her class, the other in class X.
The two others are Class XI students who study elsewhere.
The FIR mentions the name of only one of the four – one Class XI student. It was filed at Kavi Nagar police station under Section 70(2) (gang rape) of BNS and sections of Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act around 11.30pm on Sunday night after the girl's father filed a complaint.

According to the FIR, around 11.30am on Sunday morning, the girl received a call from the Class XI student named in the FIR. They knew each other and were connected on social media, though they don't study in the same school. Over the call, he informed her that he was coming to meet her – the girl's father alleged he had been insisting for two days on coming and meeting her.
On Sunday morning, when he landed up, she was alone at home – the father was out for work and her mother had gone to a market.

"During that time, the doorbell rang, and when she opened the door, she saw the prime accused and three other boys," according to the FIR.
"These four boys forcibly took her inside a room, covered her mouth and threw her on the bed. They held her hands and feet, and each of the four boys took turns assaulting her. When the complainant's wife returned from the market, she found the flat door open and saw the four boys with her daughter.
She locked them inside and raised an alarm. She also called her husband," the FIR adds.
The girl's father told TOI on Tuesday that he immediately called police at 112 when his wife told him what had happened. "When some residents of the society came to our house and were talking to my wife about the incident, the boys managed to flee," he said, accusing police of not reacting quickly enough to detain the boy at the spot.
"The boys were harassing my daughter for a long time on social media platforms.
Whenever she refused to talk, they threatened her," he said.
Bhaskar Verma, ACP of Kavi Nagar, said a police team had been formed to investigate and CCTV footage of the society was also being examined. "We sent the girl for a medical examination. The report is awaited. Her magistrate statement will be recorded soon," he said.
Sources said the main accused lives in the Wave City area. The manager of the school the girl studies in confirmed to TOI on Tuesday that she had taken admission only this year.
"As far as we know, her family recently shifted to Ghaziabad. However, the girl has not attended school since she took admission. We have the records."
Though the Class XI student named as accused and the girl did not study in the school together, he and her brother did. "The main accused and her brother were in our school till Class 10. Both did not continue in Class 11," the school manager said.
