Two boys were allegedly forced to assault each other by a group of people in west Delhi.
A First Information Report was registered against 10 people over accusations of forcing the children to sexual assault each other and filming the act.
The crime is believed to have taken place on 26 October but was only brought to the attention of authorities on Saturday, 4 November, when the boys' families approached police after video footage emerged on social media.
It has been claimed the boys, aged between 13 and 15, were suspected by the accused of theft and were taken to one of the suspect’s residences and tortured.
