Police Probe Unverified Hiring After Alleged Gang Rape on Bus

Police are investigating an alleged rape of a 17-year-old girl inside a moving bus.

Two men, who worked as the bus driver and conductor, have been accused.

Police say the company hired them without checking their records.

Police also say none of the company’s other drivers and conductors had been verified.

The private bus service operates at least 12 buses.

Investigators are questioning the people who run the service.

They may also speak with workers at shops that regularly dealt with the buses.

The investigation is examining how the men were hired and whether anyone noticed anything unusual.
