The Central Bureau of Investigation’s forensic team is mapping the mobile phone calls made by those suspected of having raped 34 girl inmates at the Muzaffarpur shelter home in Bihar.

“The forensic team is also examining the evidence lifted by the State Police. It will visit the scene of crime to collect more evidence,” said an official. The agency plans to seek custodial interrogation of the 10 arrested accused.

The abuse at the Balika Grih came to light following a social audit conducted by the Tata Institute of Social Sciences of shelter homes across the State.
