Two days ago, the girl was allegedly raped by four persons on the outskirts of Peddapalli. She was injured severely. While her parents were shifting her to Madhya Pradesh, the victim succumbed to injuries on the outskirts of Peddapalli. 

The parents, fearing backlash, did not disclose the incident to anyone and performed the last rites to their daughter on the way to Madhya Pradesh. 

However, on knowing the incident, police started searching for the accused persons. Police are trying to get information from the girl's parents. Most of the migrant workers in Peddapalli are from Odisha and Madhya Pradesh who work at brick kilns.
