Two young army trainee officers and their women friends were attacked by armed miscreants on Wednesday in Madhya Pradesh's Indore district. The attackers, who initially came with an apparent intention of looting assaulted the trainee officers and gang-raped one of the women. 

Two accused have been arrested in connection with the case one of whom has been found to have a prior criminal record, reported NDTV. 

The incident took place on Tuesday afternoon when the officers, undergoing training at Mhow Army College had gone out with the women for a picnic near the firing range at Chhoti Jam area in Indore.
