Actor Bhumi Pednekar has expressed her outrage over the alleged gang-rape of a 9-year-old Dalit girl by two minor boys in Uttar Pradesh's Ballia district.

Sharing a post on her Instagram Stories, Bhumi wrote, 'Please read! A 9 year old girl was sexually assaulted by a 11 year old and a 12 year old.'

'What the hell is going on! How are we not alarmed and ashamed at what we're doing with our children. To me both the little girl and the boys are victims of a broken society,' she added.

This is not the first time that Bhumi has expressed her outrage over recent incidents. In January, she shared that she was deeply disturbed by reports of a six-year-old girl allegedly gang-raped by three boys, aged 10, 13, and 14, in Delhi.
