Seven minor girls at an orphanage here have alleged being raped over a period of two months, police said today.
The girls, all in the age group of 14-15 years, were staying at the orphanage at Muttil in Kalpetta in Wayanad district.
The incident came to light after one of the girls was seen coming out from a nearby shop in suspicious circumstances and was questioned by the orphanage staff, following which a complaint was lodged with the police, they said.
A probe has been launched into the case and some persons have been questioned, a top police official said, adding no arrests have been made so far.
