Kuldeep (18) and Niranjan Yadav (17) attempted to rape the 14-year-old
girl when she had gone out in connection with some work in Gadwa
Buzurg village in Gursahaiganj area in Kannauj on June 18.

When the girl raised an alarm, the duo attacked her with knives,
piercing her left eye and injuring the other. The cornea of the left
