Three men have been arrested following a video circulated on social media appearing to show girls being molested, in India.

Sources say two girls were allegedly molested, with the footage of the incident then being posted online.

The location of the incident has been identified as Rampur district in the northern Indian state of Uttar Pradesh, though when the incident took place is still unclear.

At least four men can be seen groping and abusing the women in the video while nine others watch. The men continue to molest the women and laugh even as they plead to be allowed to go.

An officer told the BBC that police were trying to identify the other suspects.
