A 10th grader girl was hospitalised after she was raped allegedly by a youth while she was going to attend a private tuition from her house at Fulgazi upazila in Feni on Saturday morning.

Family members of the victim filed a complaint with Fulgazi Police Station bringing rape allegation against a Sohag following the incident.

The victim is supposed to sit for SSC examinations this year from Bondhua High School.
