The young lady being assaulted by the guys
A very disturbing and heartbreaking video has emerged on social media which has already gone viral, shows the moment a group of teenage boys s*xually assaulted an underage girl called Imane on a public bus in Morocco.
The girl is who is reportedly mentally unstable, can be seen struggling in the video while the boys tore her shirt off her body and pulled her pants down. She cried and struggled helplessly while the boys laughed in her face and fondled her n*ked breasts, pressing their body against hers.
At a point, one of the boys put his mouth on her breast but she struggled even harder and screamed while the boys, who had now pulled off their shirts, muffled her screams with clothes. Every time she tried to escape, they pulled her back and continued groping her breasts.
While the video sparked widespread condemnation on social and local media, the Moroccan authorities on Monday, said they had arrested six boys aged 15 to 17 for their 'presumed implication in the woman's aggression' and put them under investigation.
