Agra, Jul 1 (IBNS) Two members of a music and dance troupe have recently been kidnapped and gang-raped at gun-point by about a dozen men in Agra.

Media reports said two of the accused have been arrested. They were among those who had organised a music and dance show at a village 50 km off Agra on June 25 after which the crime was committed.

 The three-member troupe had come from Mathura.

According to the women, they were on their way back to Mathura in a car when some of the organisers, who were following them in a motorcycle, stopped the vehicle and took them to a house at gun point where they were raped for about two hours.

 The women say they were assaulted by about 10 or 12 men.

The two women went to the Agra police and filed a complaint on Wednesday.
