Kilinochchi police reported that a 7 year old Tamil girl has been gang raped on her way to school earlier this week.
The girl was reportedly on her way to school when she was stopped by unidentified persons who went on to gang rape her in a public toilet.
She was subsequently admitted to a hospital in Kilinochchi and then later transferred to Jaffna Teaching hospital for further treatment.
The incident comes after the gang rape and murder of another Tamil school girl last month, which lead to widespread protests across the North-East.
