The accused later set her on fire,&quot; Superintendent of Police Pravin Tripathi said. Two people were arrested and a minor was detained. The victim is undergoing treatment at hospital, he said. The father of the victim, a daily wage labourer, filed a complaint late Tuesday night, he said. The victim with 65 percent burns was initially admitted to a local nursing home in the district but was later shifted to the government-run Seth Sukhlal Karnani Memorial Hospital. &quot;She has 65 percent burns and her condition is very critical. We cannot conduct a medical test to ascertain rape unless her condition is stable,&quot; hospital Superintendent TK Ghosh said. West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee had Monday slammed &quot;a section of media&quot; for allegedly highlighting rape cases to target her government. She said they published &quot;canards and exaggerated negative news items&quot; to show her administration in bad light.u00a0
