The report indicated that the victim had gone to the beach with a male friend to celebrate a festival when the perpetrators overpowered her friend and sexually assaulted her.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The Commission noted that if the contents of the media report were true, it raised a serious issue of human rights violations. Consequently, it issued notices to the Chief Secretary and the Director General of Police, Odisha, requesting a detailed report on the matter within two weeks. The report is expected to cover the status of the investigation, the victim\u2019s health, and any compensation or counseling provided to her by the state authorities.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:
