The Mumbai Juvenile Justice Board on Tuesday convicted two juveniles for the gang rape of a photojournalist on August 22 last year, reports.
The incident took place inside the Shakti Mills compound in Mumbai's Lower Parel area where the 23-year-old woman had gone for an assignment.
She was gang-raped by five accused, including a juvenile.
She was working with an English magazine as an intern. The men tied up the friend who was accompanying her and raped the woman.
The four accused were also charged under the Information Technology (IT) Act on October 11 by a special sessions court, for allegedly forcing the victim to watch a pornographic video and asking her to imitate the act.
