They have been charged under Indian Penal Code (IPC) sections 323 (voluntarily causing hurt) and 341 (wrongful restraint) for allegedly ragging junior students, the ASI added.

Earlier, on July 24, a criminal case was registered against unidentified students of the government-run Mahatma Gandhi Memorial (MGM) Medical College in Indore following a complaint of ragging received on the University Grants Commission (UGC) helpline.
Medical Dialogues team had earlier reported that eight senior MBBS students of Indore-based Mahatma Gandhi Memorial Medical College (MGMMC) had been booked for ragging their juniors, forcing them to perform indecent acts.
The FIR was registered after the new students lodged a complaint with the anti-ragging helpline of the UGC, which had informed the dean of the medical college about the complaint and directed him to lodge the FIR.
